So I was in Bray today and it hit me what to get my Mum for her 50th birthday.
I’m going to plan a trip to Dublin around Christmas. Why I hear you ask.
1. She has always wanted to see Grafton Street lit up at night, but doesn’t like travelling home from Dublin in the dark.
2. She has always wanted to go to The Guinness Storehouse, but feels she would be very tired to travel home afterwards, trying to meet buses and trains.
3 She has always wanted to go to The Jameson Distillery, but again, feels she would be very worn out afterwards.
So my plan is to book a two night stay in Dublin for her to all this. I will book the hotel, and get in contact with both Distilleries to make sure the tours won’t be over booked. Then get all the print-outs and give them to her for her birthday on September 4th.
I’m looking up prices of hotels in the south of Dublin near Grafton Street. And I have to say, they are so cheap! I am so surprised. They’re only room priced based, no evening meal or breakfast, but we’d go out for breakfast and dinner, or eat in the bar.
Do ye think it’s a good idea?
