Weekends in Dublin

Since we don't have a car, we are always out and about on the weekend, no matter what the weather.  While it is usually cold and will some times snow (but never stick to the ground), it is never unbearable.     I'm happy that I live in a place where the weather is not extreme, especially because we have to walk every where.  I wanted to blog today about our adventures on the weekends.  We usually go out for brunch in the mornings, go to Grafton street to walk around and take Connor to the parks that are close by.  

I still haven't seen a famous person around the city centre, but I know a few of them have been spotted like Conan O'Brien and Justin Bieber.  I'll just have to keep my eyes open.  

We have also just booked our next trips.  For St. Patricks Day we are going to Prague and for Easter we are going to Amsterdam for the tulip festival.  I know, you would think we would stay for St. Patricks Day since we are in Ireland, but I don't think it will be our scene, especially with a child.  

We also need to get our flights in because Connor will be 2 soon and we'll have to start paying 90% of the adult airfare price!

So, here are some pictures from our weekends in Dublin:
