Howth




My roommate and I went to Howth for a day; it was a wonderful trip. We saw seals like this one in the Howth Harbour; they were fed with fish and had to be very quick to get them before the seagulls did. We did the 10km long trip; it took a couple of hours but we stopped very often to catch the beautiful cliffs in photographs.

It was windy but sunny; and when we reached the windless side of Howth it was really nice and warm. I really like the cliffs, the green grass, the waves; it's calming. When we reached a little beach (and by beach I mean a place where you can go into the water, no sand) there was nothing that could hold me back from putting off my shoes and touch the fresh cold sea.

The last part of the trip led across a golf course. Fortunately, there were little white stones that lead us the way and helped us to stay in the safe area. But don't bother the golfers!

When we had finally arrived Howth Harbour again we definitely deserved a burger with chips. Full and content we said goodbye to the seals and took the train back to Dublin.
