♧ A Little Week-End in Dublin ♧























































                                        Fotos by The 3 Sisters.

I colori dell'autunno ci stanno circondando piano piano, la luce che cala (sempre più presto purtoppo), il profumo del legno..., ci hanno fatto pensare ad un bellissimo week-end famigliare trascorso l'anno passato a Dublino in occasione del concerto "Il Divo" (4 bravissimi giovani tenori, con una mare di fan in calore) e ci è venuta voglia di condividere con voi alcune foto.
Non avevamo mai messo piede in Irlanda prima d'ora ma questa città a misura d'uomo ma molto cosmopolita, giovane e alle mille sfaccetature ci è piaciuta un sacco. Le sue case in stile georgiane, le sue tipiche porte (tutte di un colore diverso), la sua concentrazione di Pub ( non si puo' immaginare i litri di birra consumati ogni week-end), il suo Soda Bread&Butter, i suoi prodotti freschissimi e saporiti , il loro accento 1po' rozzo ma molto amichevole...

In seguito (dopo testi) una piccola selezione dei nostri "Coup de Coeur in Town":



Les couleurs de l'automne nous recouvrent petit à petit, la lumière se tamise (de plus en plus tôt malheureusement), la senteur du bois..., nous ont fait penser à un magnifique petit week-end en famille de l'an passé à Dublin, pour le concert de "Il Divo" (4 jeunes ténors très doués, avec une horde de Fans déchaînées) et nous est venue ainsi l'envie de le partager avec vous quelques unes de nos fotos.
Nous n'avions jamais mis les pieds en Irlande avant ça, mais cette ville petite mais très cosmopolite, jeune et aux milles façades, nous a énormément plut. Ses maisons au style géorgien, ses portes typiques (toutes de couleurs différentes), son concentré de Pubs (on ne peut imaginer les litres de bières consumés chaque week-end), son Soda Bread&Butter, ses produits locaux frais et goûteux, l' accent un peu rude mais très amicale...

A la suite (après les textes) une petite sélection de nos "Coup de Coeur in Town":


The fall color are surrounding us slowly, the light falls (more sooner unfortunately), the smell of wood...made us think of a beautiful family week-end in Dublin for the concert "Il Divo" (4 talented young tenors with a horde of  crazy fan) last year and we want share with you some of our pictures.  
We never been in Ireland before, but this small but cosmopolite city, young and with many shades charmed us completly with the georgian house, the typical doors (all of a different colors), the many Pubs (can not imagine liters of beer consumed every week-end), the Soda Bread&Butter, its local produce fresh and tasty and their accent a bit harsh (to understand for us) but very friendly!!
