Killiney

Killiney is south of Dublin along the coast. It's a quick ride on the DART and one of the best deals around--35 minutes and a few euro each and we were out on the seashore.
A view from the train station, only significant in that the 2 main estates on the hillside belong to Bono and Enya.
Jasmine saw the sand and literally dropped to her bottom and stayed put.
I posed for a moment but I was transfixed by the smooth, perfectly shaped rocks strewn across the beach. Jasmine and I collected enough to fill a small bag and we've been playing with them ever since.

Eventually we convinced her to run and play along the beach. I'm imagining this beach is a place where many a song was composed, given it's the backyard of famous musicians.

We grabbed a bite to eat in an overpriced restaurant afterwards. At least the Guiness was good...
