Dublin City - Tourist for a day

As any other person living out of Dublin, occasionally I need to go there on business for a few hours and and then to hurry back home to my part of the world, in my case Galway. 

I grabbed one of the early buses, so I can be there bright and early, that way I hoped to finish as fast as possible with a bit of time left for sightseeing. I always use GoBus when I travel. For me they are the most comfortable and reliable. It takes two hours and a half to get from Galway to Dublin, but the GoBus is so comfy, the time passes very fast especially if there is something to occupy yourself with - a book, a phone, a laptop....  

Once in Dublin there was no time for fun or aimless walking around. Nevertheless, I did feel like a tourist for a day which was really great and relaxing, I dutifully took my camera out for a spin and grabbed a few shots on the way from and back to the bus stop. 

Unfortunately my business concluded right on time for the returning bus ride home so I almost had to run. This is provincial life for you, not much time for entertainment when you go to Dublin on business. Hopefully next time.....

Lets walk through Dublin together - Tourist for a day

I hope you enjoyed our Dublin walk

FROM GALWAY to DUBLIN and BACK

Believe it or not, I had ONE hour appointment in Dublin last Monday so I had no choice but to pack a sandwich (don't judge me, I like making my own sandwiches) and look for a bus. 

Luckily I found GOBUS.IE. Fantastic service as it turned out, you can even chat with them on line right now if you have any questions and they are fabulously helpful. So I did my research and found the right buses for departure and return and all I had left to do was show up on time and not forget my sandwich! By the way there is a toilet and Wi-Fi in there so the trip can be as painless as possible.  

The beauty of it all is that there is a bus leaving from Galway to Dublin and vice versa, every hour, so it is not a problem to go just for an hour and then come back!! I should try to get myself appointments more often I suppose. It is a good opportunity to take some photos on a new turf since I am not really familiar with Dublin. And since I did not have much time to go anywhere I only managed to take a few shots along the river. So bear with me, maybe next time I will have more time to discover more of Dublin and then there will be more to share!!  

For now this is all I have:

The bus stop at George's Quay.

I hope you enjoyed your walk with me in Dublin City!!
