Thursday 22 December - Friday 23 December
We arrived at 5:55am after an overnight ferry ride that was tiring and full of loud children. Danny picked us up and we headed to the Ramamoorthys house where we were kindly greeted and shown a bed for a few hours! The next few days we spent in the city, seeing Dublin and doing last minute shopping. Maybe someone will write later about more in depth impressions of Ireland (Rach?) but here are just a few photographic highlights of our time.
Getting a tour of Trinity College, where Danny did his MBA.
Mailboxes in the Republic of Ireland are green (just so that you know that you are NOT in the United Kingdom where they are red).
We Bells love bookstores... no matter where they are!
Walking down G--- Street (sorry, forgot the name...).
Followed by lively discusion around the dinner table about technology and children, among other things.
24 December
Christmas Eve we spent outside the city visiting the small town of Bray and climbing its "head" for an incredible view of the area.
Making friends...
They liked Mr Ramamoorthy much better.
Where there are posts, Bells will climb...
That's Bray Head, the mountain we climbed up.
Half way up...
On the top!
Jed and Josh found a new favourite pastime... wind leaning started here and continued on the Northern Ireland coast!
Impressing (or scaring!) the locals. Jed entertained a whole family for about 10 minutes! Unfortunately we didn't have a hat to pass around! :)
Mulled wine and electronic devices... mm....
25 December
Can't seem to find the photos but church, lots of good Indian food and movies, games and good conversations! Pretty much all day.
26 December
After an excellent time of good food and lots of sights and memories, time to say goodbye.
