Trip to Dublin

In March of 2018, I made a last-minute decision to visit my cousin in the Irish capital for a short four-day holiday. Due to the short notice, I booked my flight just four days before I left and had to include a short layover in Cologne before I left the European mainland for Ireland.

Here is what the view out of the plane looking back at Cologne from the sky looked like:

On the day of my arrival, I just walked around the city, chatted with some friendly locals, explored Dublin’s nightlife and pubs, and met up with my cousin in the evening.

The next day, we travelled together to Howth, which is located north of Dublin. Although it was a little bit foggy and rainy, it was nevertheless a nice trip.

On the third day, we took a short trip to Greystones, a seaside town in the south of Dublin. From there, we then wandered back to Dublin.

On our way, we also came across Bray Head Hill:

Having lunch and dinner in a pub every day was a nice experience - I totally see myself getting used to that.

On my last day in Dublin, I explored the city again before leaving in the evening. Just as on the outbound flight, I had a layover in Cologne.
