Filed under: Dun Laoghaire
One of the things that we all miss when we’re in Minnesota is walking down the Dun Laoghaire Pier. So we’ve been there twice. (Dun Laoghaire is a town south of Dublin; we live much closer to Dun Laoghaire than to the center of Dublin.) There are actually two piers in Dun Laoghaire. The East Pier is the one that’s best for a walk if you want to see people and maybe get an ice cream. The East Pier is a little rougher. But usually your odds of seeing a seal (or even porpoise!) is higher on the east pier. Amazingly we walked down both and saw a seal each time. It’s always a big thrill for us to see a seal.
Otherwise they’ve fixed up our favorite Irish Chinese restaurant, Café Mao. The cinema is showing Kung Fu Panda 2. They’re still renovating the boardwalk (and have been for more than a year) but it’s going to be nice when they’re done!
