Don't Miss Grafton Street.


It’s always a lot of fun and definitely entertaining walking along Grafton Street. 
 
There was a young man playing Leonard Cohen’s hallelujah on his violin and a little farther down was a boy about three or four years old positioning his head in one of those cardboard displays. Yep. He really did look like a Leprechaun. He was so happy when his dad showed him the picture. 
 
On the next corner there were two beautiful Irish girls singing Panis Angelicus and next to them was a man with the greatest bandana practicing his juggling. He was good.  

I always take a walk through St. Stephen’s Green, the beautiful park just off Grafton. The sun was shining, no rain as of yet, so the park had lots of folks around.  

There were children feeding the ducks, moms running after toddlers and young guys and gals lying on the grass reading or napping.
 
 It’s a great place to take pictures or just sit on a bench with a cup of coffee and watch the people.  
 
On my way back to O’Connell Street I stopped to listen to the girls. They were singing the Ave. Maria. Loads of folks stood around in amazement at their beautiful voices and the juggler was helping a little girl practice her skills.
I could hear someone off in the distance singing Adele’s Someone like You. 
 
Dublin is a must~ see if you come to Ireland.
There’s an energy that just sets your heart free! 

I was almost to Trinity College when I thought, you know what?
I’m going to do it!
I’m going to go back and ask him where he got that bandana.
 
Don’t miss Grafton Street! Or St. Stephen's Green.
