Most cities you walk down, the street lamps are just boring metal poles obstructing a view. But Dublin lightposts are full of shamrocks that not only show off a sense of Irish style, but are often the subject of tourist pictures. They often catch my eye as I walk down the street and I smile to myself knowing how lucky I am to be living this life and in this city.

A Dublin Lightpost
Most cities you walk down, the street lamps are just boring metal poles obstructing a view. But Dublin lightposts are full of shamrocks that not only show off a sense of Irish style, but are often the subject of tourist pictures. They often catch my eye as I walk down the street and I smile to myself knowing how lucky I am to be living this life and in this city.
I like how you find the beauty of the city even on a grey dreary day.
ReplyDeleteHeading to Dublin from the Boston area for the first time next month - and I'll make sure to look up and catch some of these lamp post shamrocks myself!
