Christmas Tree Graveyard

While I was in New York visiting a friend, we enjoyed the great weather by grabbing lunch and eating in the park. Once we were finished, we headed to a little pub in the village. As we wandered through the park, we saw these kids making the most of the Christmas trees that has been abandoned after the holiday. They were playing a funny little game of hide and seek.

St. Stephen's Green - Dublin

All great cities have great parks. There are a lot of parks sprinkled throughout Dublin. However, the most popular park is St. Stephen's Green. During this trip, I had the good fortune to be able to walk through the park on my way to the City Centre every morning.

There is something lovely and compact about the park. Even better, there is not really a direct route through the park. With it circular walkways that intertwine throughout, you can enjoy walking a different way through the park all the time. It is a great place to also relax and people watch.
