Holiday Weather for a Grand Day Out

I had a grand day out with two of my best friends today.
We normally meet for coffee on Wednesday morning but today we headed further afield than our favourite coffee shop.
We went to Malahide, a seaside village which has become an affluent suburb of Dublin.
We walked by the sea

Bought some flowers

And even spotted a celebrity (it's Ronan Keating of Boyzone for those of you who are not fans of boybands).

I don't recall seeing this one previously. Most of the water is amazingly smooth and flat, giving a perfect reflection of the boats; the hazy band provides a good separation between sea and sky. The other shots make a nice "diary of the day". (And I recall Mr. Keating more from his solo career, though he's had a few gigs on TV shows and radio down here over the last couple of years.)

Wonderful series of photos. I'm so glad your spring has finally arrived. The harbor scene is especially beautiful with the blue water and sky and white boats. V.

Such a lovely scene -- I guess I don't imagine Ireland looking like this ;-). Color is super and so are the reflections on that perfect water. V.
