A trip to the seaside

Our holiday in Ireland was all together lovely, spending time with James' family and enjoying the (somewhat unexpected) glorious weather. One of the nicest days was when James, Una and I took a trip to Dalkey, a seaside town on the outskirts of Dublin. We got the train there and spent a few hours strolling around, stopping for coffee and cake of course. The town was so pretty, with lots of little shops, beautiful houses and the gorgeous sea in the background. I fell in love with the place and wouldn't mind living there myself, how fantastic it would be to live in a beautiful little town with the sea at your doorstep, yet you are a 40 minute train journey from the centre of Dublin with trains running every half hour! We picked up some raspberries from a little fruit and veg shop before we headed to James' uncles for dinner, where we had them for dessert with strawberries and ice cream, they were so sweet and delicious, good Irish produce.
