A Dublin Arrival Adventure Chasing Sunsets on the River Liffey

Embarking on our journey from Dublin Airport to The Gibson Hotel with our trusty Globus tour guide, Helen, we were greeted by a rare sight in Ireland – the sun! Helen jovially remarked on its infrequency, prompting us to savor the moment while we could.


After a brief nap to shake off the jet lag, TJ and I seized the opportunity to capture the elusive sunset along the River Liffey. With daylight dwindling, courtesy of the approaching winter solstice, we knew time was of the essence. In Ireland, the sun rises around 8:00 am and sets promptly at 4:00 pm during this time of year.


As we made our way to the River Liffey, we immersed ourselves in the vibrant city culture of Dublin. The river, which winds its way through the heart of the city before meeting Dublin Bay, provided a picturesque backdrop for our sunset excursion.


Our stroll led us to the Samuel Beckett Bridge, where we marveled at our first glimpses of Irish city life. It was a scene punctuated by the graceful arcs of construction cranes, unofficially dubbed as the city's soaring birds, dominating the skyline.


Captivated by the beauty of the moment and the rich tapestry of Dublin's urban landscape, we embraced the magic of our arrival in the Emerald Isle. Little did we know, this sunset stroll would mark the beginning of countless adventures and unforgettable experiences throughout our Irish journey.
