Dublin - 8/5 - Day 12

8 years of marriage today, and we're feeling very much like us. It's all about footsteps and food, as we spend our day exploring the city's major sights. 


Our first stop is St Stephen's Green, a gorgeous park full of greenery and history. 




There's grass and fountains and trees, and a nice park for kids to play. 


There's a sprawling pond with so many ducks and even a pair of mated swans. 


The famine statue is quite moving, 


and Lord Ardilaun sits serenely on the western side, satisfied with his decision to dedicate the green to Dublin. 


Of particular interest to me is the RCSI building across the street as it houses Dublin's medical school, from which I know a few graduates. 


Merrion Square is pretty as well,



and the playground treehouse is epic. 


We walk by Trinity College too, and finish the day by shopping.
