A bella day in Dublin, such extraordinary warm weather, with The Spire shining silver up and down that blue, bright blue, blueness.

Lovely day catching up with amigas. Delight, delight, delight. And more to come yet.

And an eye test! And glasses now back on the face! Who knew? Dublin the centre for affordable eyewear. Paid 15 euro for an eye test.

There’s a very nifty city bicycle program in operation. They look like solid bikes and are affordable to rent. The traffic however you’d have to ride among is less appealing. Buses galore, and just looping endless vehicles. I used to cycle all over Dublin way back, but that was pre the boom.
