Today I will be heading out to Dún Laoghaire , a small seaside town in south County Dublin. And while the town is pretty and quaint the main reason for boarding the dart and heading out for the day is the From the Mountains to the Sea book festival.
I tickets to two readings and I am looking forward to a day surrounded by books and like minded people. And since I have some time between the readings I will be meeting up with some visiting German girls for lunch and a chat – and hopefully there will be a bit of a buzz around.
My camera is packed and I hope the sun will push the clouds aside and brighten up the day. But whatever happens I am looking forward to ending my busy week with a literary day.
