Dirty old town

by Ruai - last update: Sep 2, 2006

Old-New city on the banks of the liffey

Customs House, Dublin, 1791
Dublin is my hometown. Its changed a lot in the last few years, sometimes for the good, sometimes not, but its essential character is indomitable in the face of all that can be thrown at it! Its a lively, dirty, at times beautiful place surrounded by lovely countryside and facing the sea.

One of its defining characteristics at the moment is a rapidly increasing population and you won't have to walk far in the city to encounter some of those attracted to work here by the booming Irish economy.

 it seems Dept of Enterprise building, Kildare Street and i have something in common ~ Food appears to be pricey for folks with greenbacks and Loonies across the atlantic ;-(((

 Had never considered Dublin or Ireland as a "tourist destination", I will return to your pages to see more, you may have "adjusted" my thinking. Thanks, Martin
