Liffey Town

As Vikings, we are naturally ... curious about what goes on around us.  A monastery in Glendalough?  Oh, interesting!  An undefended village on the West Coast?  Oh, is that so?  Like I said, it's natural! 

So when we heard about houses being built on the Liffey we were very interested, naturally.  I took a walk down by the boardwalk ('The planks on the banks!') this morning and saw the little monopoly like structures happily secured to the riverbed, oblivious to the obviously wary seagulls that made a point of fluttering away.  I took a few photos which I'll share here, and also post a link to the website of Fergal McCarthy which has alot more information about the mini-village on our watery doorstep.  Check it out here.

I've saved the best til last about Liffeytown.  For anyone harumphing over it, check it out at night.  A tiny little town ideal for watery-leprechauns with lights in the 'windows' and everything.  We at Viking Splash Tours approve of the little Liffey-side village and will refrain from raiding it for now :)

In other news, Jimmy the Gallant played host to Síle Seoige from RTE Radio 1! 

If you missed it on the radio on Monday September 13th, check it out here now.  It gives a really great insight into Viking Splash Tours and GlideTours.

That's all for now folks.
