Dublin is the capital and largest city of Ireland. Dublin is in the province of Leinster on Ireland's east coast, at the mouth of the River Liffey.Founded as a Viking settlement, the Kingdom of Dublin became Ireland's principal city following the Norman invasion. The city expanded rapidly from the 17th century and was briefly the second largest city in the British Empire before the Act of Union in 1800. Following the partition of Ireland in 1922, Dublin became the capital of the Irish Free State, later renamed Ireland.

Notes - sightseeing for 2 days
 
In Dublin and tucking into my first Guinness on Irish soil. Sorry to all the northern Irish but that's still part of the UK so doesn't count.

Did a wee tour of the Old Jamieson distillery. Is a good drop but its still a blend. Not close to a good Scottish single malt.
