  A visit to Kilmainham Gaol under the rain
by Jefie
 
 

Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: For the most part, we were lucky with the weather while we were in Dublin as we got to enjoy quite a few sunny days, but you never know what to expect - in one day it went from being sunny, to cloudy, then the rain started, then hail (!!), and then the sun came back out again! I'd brought with me a light waterproof windbreaker and I ended up wearing it everyday because I never knew how the weather would turn out. The good thing though is that Dubliners are so used to rain that they don't let it stop them from going outside - walking tours won't be cancelled, for example... and there's always a nice pub to duck in if the rain gets too heavy :o)

Review Helpfulness: 3.5 out of 5 stars
