The Harp Lounge

Family, International, Ireland

After successfully surviving the trans-Atlantic flight in tourist class, making our way through Irish Immigration, and procuring a rental car complete with a wifi hotspot, we headed out on our first day of exploring the countryside. Our plan is to carry enough food for snacks in the car and a couple of simple meals so we headed to the Aldi in Swords north of Dublin, Ireland. but they weren’t yet open on this Sunday morning. Instead we went into town in search of Black Pudding and found it as part of a Full Irish Breakfast at the Harp Lounge in the Carnegie Court Hotel! A delicious and filling start to our visit to The Emerald Isle!

OUR VERY

LATEST

National Portrait Gallery

National Portrait Gallery

It was a most educational visit to the newly renovated National Portrait Gallery at Trafalgar Square in Central London. We were intrigued with the contemporary approach to presenting British History.

Bletchley Park

Bletchley Park

It was at Bletchley Park that the Allied Codebreakers deciphered German military messages during the Second World War. A free guided tour gave us a good overview of the campus and the activities that occurred here from 1938 to 1945.

Fenton House and Spaniards Inn

Fenton House and Spaniards Inn

A lovely way to spend a Sunday in Hampstead. We visited the historic Fenton House to view lots of lovely collectibles, to listen to and learn about harpsicords, and to tour and linger in the garden before heading off to the historic Spaniard’s Inn for a most delectable Sunday Roast.
