I recently went to Dublin on a weekend trip organised by the residence association at my university. and quelle experience!!
The trip itself was a bargain- with mytravellite- we got flight and 2 nights accomodation for just £45! bargain-argain! 42 of us stayed in a hostel called Jacobs Inn, which was about ten minutes walk from the city centre. unfortunately, having got up at an hour previously unknown to us students, we were thoroughly prepared to throw ourselves into our (bunk)beds the second we got there at 9am. this wasn't to be. we were not allowed to have our rooms until 3pm-which caused much aggravation. Straight away we had to get to grips with the Euro in cafe serving not-quite-fatty enough fry ups. Three of us then proceeded to Dublinzoo which was utterly wonderful and took our minds off the bleary eyes for a good few ...
The Phoenix Park in the centre of Dublin city is a great place for all to visit.It is easily accessed as there are quite a number of entrances around it .It is the biggest city park in Europe.It contains DublinZoo which is a great place for people of all ages to visit.It is expensive to enter the Zoo but it has to be said that it is money well spent.Also in the park is the official residance of the President of Ireland. This is called Aras un Uachtaran.It is in the centre of the park.There are many more interesting places to see there including the Wellington monument,the Polo grounds,an old military post and all the wildlife on offer.There are a herd of deer that roam freely from one end to the other.Its well worth a visit. ...
