Dublin Day 2: 8th June 2010

I attended the conference in the morning till late afternoon..and met up with Dear to go to Malahide Castle and Howth..that are accessible from Dublin city via the DART.(local train out of city)..it’s like..hmm “Dublin Hour”..i see the most beautiful scenery along the way out of the city..Malahide Castle was about the Talbot family if I didn't forget haha…and Howth was near a sea harbour..which boasts of fresh seafood and seals!

I’ll let the pictures do the talking for our adventures in Malahide Castle and Howth…simply unforgettable day with the huge mussels and juicy salmon!i nv ate such a juicy salmon before..it’s amazing..and that huge bowl of mussels..according to the waitress..is like 30 huge mussels there..cost at about 20bucks I recalled..simply worth it!

The day hours at Dublin is so so long....till 10pm..is still daytime…to take night shots..we have to wait till 11pm..and by den…already very shag…but no choice..pics are our rewards at the end of the day haha!

Howth was amazing…we managed to catch the time at which the people at the harbor feed the seals…den we got blown off by the strong and chilly wind..and ate icecream at a convenient store..a highly recommended day trip out of Dublin..

Our only regret was not to try the oysters there as there weren’t any oysters available that day…we can image the oysters being very huge..just like the mussels haha..
