De ghnáth maidin Domhnaigh, I go for a run down the coast to the Coliemore Harbour with its view of Dalkey Island...
... and if I'm lucky, fear agus a mhadra living their best lives
Occasionally rith mé beagán níos faide up the Vico Road with its vista curving down to Contae Chill Mhantáin
Part way up Vico Road, there's a tiny path leading down to the sea, áit deas sa samhradh for swimmers, and the site of a WWII "EIRE" sign in the hillside
Tógadh i 1943, it was recently renovated by volunteers https://twitter.com/rtenews/status/1124733053543374848
With the 5k limit, ní feidir liom dul ach as far as Glasthule. I miss saying Dia duit to the Dalkey locals
I can still get the radharc of Joyce's Tower (it wasn't actually his, he stayed there for like a week)
I love this stretch of coast - whether you run, walk, cycle, roll along the coast here, i gcónaí tá rud éigin suimiúil le feiceáil
An-bhrónach when this wall was demolished
The county council have made huge changes in the last six months creating a "mobility route" in aice leis an gcósta ón gCarraig Dhubh go Cuas an Ghainimh https://twitter.com/robertburns73/status/1317330042381389824
It's used gach lá, not just weekend leisure cyclists, though Dé Domhnaigh is definitely the busiest day https://twitter.com/Pidge/status/1310214201772777475
The redesign of Blackrock Main Street to accommodate the need for more outdoor social spaces has brought a new life and vibrancy to the village https://twitter.com/robertburns73/status/1317845179370491904
The planters - lán le bláthanna fiáine agus crainn - picnic tables and additional seating has Main Street buzzing, possibly a bit more that it should be given that we're in lockdown, ach gan amhras benefiting the community's mental health. A new era for an old village.
