Dublin

Stayed at the Hotel Isaacs which has several advantages

• I've stayed there a few times

• It's situated near the Busáras only a very short walk with luggage.

• The Luas is also nearby and they have an all day ticket which allows you to sight-see easily and in comfort most of the time.

• Another few hundred yards from the Luas you find Connolly Station from which to take the DART Dublin Area Rapid Transit with trains along the coast to Howth and Malahide

• The Airlink bus stops at the Busáras.

• The Hotel sells discounted tickets for the Airlink bus (half price).

• There's an excellent bar next door called the Robert Reade which sells Guinness and Paddy (whiskey). Also the staff are most pleasant, helpful and welcoming. 

• The Liffey is within easy walking/strolling distance.

Now I need to review the photos I took and see which are worth sharing...
