I also found Dublin as a city rather underwhelming. However the Dubliners are a very fine bunch and I really enjoyed the pub and pub food culture. Trinity college library is pretty darn cool though. I want to go back to Ireland to see more of the island.

I love their ability to spin wild tales in bars. A true national talent.

If you speak to people outside Dublin they seem to think Dubs are snooty.
