When last we left I teased you with memories of my day trip to Howth sans photos. So without further ado, I bring you this lovely little village by the sea. A serious must for any visitor to Dublin.
While I will not bore you with the details, I will share with you some of the magnificent sites including the boats gently bobbing in the waves:
...the picturesque lighthouse and my ideal home:
...the fishing boats returning home after a good day:
...the many visitors that the fisherman had to look forward to on the way home:
...my little sea friends arrived at feeding time, too! Quite the impromptu zoo, I also realized that my friend likes to blow raspberries at the fisherman:
(and YES he really was that close and NO this is not a zoomed in picture!)
...taking this trail:
I got a nice look at Howth from up above:
Someone gets to live in one of these pretty houses on the hillside:
While all I have are memories of wishing you were here:
Won't you please forward my mail here:

Welcome home, in more ways than one
Thank you fo rcommenting on my blog! I am enjoying your trip as well! You see, I'm trying to suprise my husband with a week long trip to .... Ireland or Amsterdam, perhaps we'll stay in the states and go to New Orleans. I digress, the trip needs to be budget friendly and full of interesting huants that we can get lost in. Ryan is more a "let's get up and explore" kind of guy, not so much the "syncronized watches and highlighted travel book" guy. Any trip suggestions would be great... have you been in any B&B's that you would recommend?
Best!
Thank you both! I am truly flattered.
As for your trip Sara, I think Dublin is a fantastic choice for a romantic getaway. We stayed at only one hotel and it was off of Grafton Street which is the main street in Dublin's restaurant/shopping/everything district. The day trip to Galway and the Cliffs of Moher was quite adventurous and very exciting, and you could even stay longer.
I have a whole long itinerary of things to do and would love to send it to you. Email me at countrygirlcityliving@gmail.com and I will send it to you.
Good luck with the trip planning, you are an amazing wife for planning such an adventure :)
