Dublin is magical at Christmas time, so today let's celebrate a happy Christmas from Dublin with a tour of the Christmas lights and decorations..
Christmas is here again and I'm delighted you've stopped by to check out my Christmas ramblings for 2018.
This year I'm spending Christmas in Dublin with family, and for those who are far away from Ireland this holiday season, I have a special treat.
Yesterday I went wandering around Dublin, camera in hand, and captured a few shots of Dublin, all decked out for Christmas.
And for anyone who would like to pin some shots of Dublin to share Ireland's capital city in all her Christmastime glory, here are a few of my photos....
Christmas Lights in Dublin
The River Liffey flows through Dublin, reflecting the lights of the season.
Here's a Christmas tree outside Buswell's Hotel near the Dáil.
Here's a child feeding a swan in St. Stephen's Green.
These baubles are in the St. Stephen's Green shopping centre at the top of Grafton Street.
These Christmas blooms were for sale on Grafton Street.
This Georgian door is decked out for Christmas.
Here's a red brick house on Saint Stephen's Green.
Here's O'Connell Street looking resplendent.
Trinity College, Dublin illuminated with snowflakes.
Rudolph, the Dublin Horse awaits to take visitors on a tour of Dublin.
A Christmas scene is displayed on the General Post Office.
This lovely tree stands in the Bank of Ireland building on College Green.
I hope you enjoyed this Christmas time tour of Dublin.
May the joy and peace of Christmas be with you all. I wish you a season of blessings from heaven above.
Slán agus beannacht,
(Goodbye and blessings)

Mairéad,
Go raibh maith agat an oiread sin as do turas iontach Nollag a roinnt ar ais sa bhaile leis an gcuid eile againn. Is iad na seansanna an-álainn iad sin. Tá súil agam go raibh an-Nollaig Shona ag tú féin agus ag do theaghlach agus beidh Bliain Nua Shona agat (beidh)!
Jeff
I hope you can read Irish. I had Google translate my previous message into Irish (Gaelic).

Jeff - Tá áthas orm gur bhain tú taitneamh as mo phictiúirí. Is féidir liom do phíosa a léamh - tá sé go hiontach ar fad. Go raibh míle maith agat. Míle buíochas duitse mar tháinig tú ar ais go dtí mo bhlag ar feadh an bliain seo caite go léir. Is mór dom do chuid tacaíochta.
Athbhliain faoi mhaise duit.
Mairéad
