AS I WALKED ALONG CAPEL STREET I ENCOUNTERED A DRAGON

by

DID I HAVE TOO MUCH WINE? YES I DID

Actually I had too much wine with my lunch at Eatokyo.

This year is the year of the Dragon and the best of Asian-Irish culture was on show along Capel Street close to my apartment.

On 20 May 2022, the street was pedestrianised. It is now the longest traffic-free street in Dublin and it has been a huge success. Today [11 February 2024 it hosted a major “Year Of The Dragon” celebration. There was a similar event on Drury Street on the other side of the River Liffey. The one in Drury Street was way too crowded for me.

DRURY STREET HOSTED A LUNAR NEW YEAR CELEBRATION

IT WAS TOO CROWDED FOR ME

The Asia Market is located on Drury Street and the funded some of the events today so I decided that I would be a good idea to visit the home of the Asia Market. It was a pointless exercise as I was stuck in a crowd for about twenty minutes and it was impossible to visit any of the shops or stalls.
