Achill 2006

I’m finally in Dublin…again! After a smooth trainride we arrived at about 5 p.m. at Heuston Station. We went straight to our hostel, dropped our luggage and went off to explore the citylife.

I really like Dublin, for it is not only a very lifely city with great pubs and places to party, but also a very old and historical place. Since it’s rise from an unimportant village at a roadcrossing until it became the city that it is today it has seen many powers come and go. They all had a more or less strong influence on the city, and I really enjoy e.g. to think about what the place where I sit right now and enjoy the highspeed internet connection might have looked like a few hundred years ago when it was inhabited by vikings. I reckon a bit different. =)

There are traces of ancient times everywhere, and one who keeps his (or her) eyes open will be rewarded with an opportunity to travel back in time, while having the luxurious amenities of our modern life.

Well, let’s see what Dublin has in stock this time. I’ll keep you updated…
