Amazing...congrats! It was like Amazing Race, Dublin Nomad edition. Definitely smart planning with Jameson and mini golf at the end.
That tiger at the beginning was amazing. You seem to be a tiger whisperer.

Thanks, Jul'! We wouldn't recommend running around like this under usual circumstances, but we had a lot of fun with the challenge!
We'd recommend picking the ones that are most interesting to you and spending more time at them, and you'll be surprised at how much you can fit into a day, even when not rushing like crazy like we did.
You could still apply some of the same general principles to any trip though to gain the most out of your time - like planning your route carefully based on location and opening times, and planning ahead for tours (sometimes mandatory or perhaps they are just something you want to do and they may only be at set times).
There were lots of great attractions on the pass and there was something for everybody. I like interactive things so I really enjoyed the Wax Museum and Dalkey Castle. Hai really liked Dublin Zoo. They have lovely grounds there.
All the very best with your own Seattle adventure! Looking forward to reading more about it! :)

Whew! You made it. I'm exhausted for you, but smart planning putting Jameson and mini golf last. :)
I wish I'd seen more of these sights on my short stint in Dublin. If nothing else, you've drawn my attention to things I'll visit when I go back. Thanks for that!

Hahaha Yes, I think those two activities went down nicely at the end! :)
With such a flying visit and a very busy one at that, you did well to see all you did during your short stay! Glad our challenge gave you some ideas for your next visit in any case. I'll be joining you in re-visiting a lot of these places :)
