09.06.07 - 11.06.07 Dublin



The Walker

The guy who fought bitterly to keep women out of the college. Now being remembered by setting up a statue for him, directly facing the main entrance of the college. To witness thousands or millions of women who came & graduated from the college. Ha! Ha!


The ruin, and the "specific" sign. I wonder if I could crawl into it.
The Green


Street Art


Famous Temple Bar, a functioning bar which serves as a landmark as well. And not forget to mention the rip-off prices they put on the menu! The one on the right that looks like a dungeon is the oldest pub in Ireland. And finally the guy in black, the infamous self-appointed fashion police a.k.a. "Bouncers"

Colours of Dublin Castle

What's wrong with this Figure of Justice? She's turning her back on the city;She is not blindfolded, and worst...her scales tilt over when it rained! (that was, until they fixed it by drilling holes on the scales. Sort of)

Tower in Dublin Castle

Dryer problem? No worries in Dublin

karen's right. Blacks, asians definitely harder to get in.
WIth asians, they usually love to check up your ID/passport. I guess it just show we don't 'age' as quickly as the caucasians. kekeke
