Rent a Bike,Phoenix Park Bike Hire,

This is situated at the Main Gate in an Old Lodge.

They have been Here for two Years,and you can Hire ,Single Bikes,Tandems,Bike's with Cabooseses to put a Child in, and it is very Safe Riding in the Park so long as you watch out for Cars at the Junctions and Stop. It should be the other way around with Cars giving Parity to Bikes. This is our stupid government for you still Pandering to the Motoring Lobby.

Roxy the Pomeranian.

I met a Man with a Nice little Dog sitting on the Steps of the Wellington Memorial. I decided to Photograph the Dog as it was so Cute looking,like a Little Bear.

It is a little Girl Dog by the Name of Roxy.

Wellington Memorial.

One of the Bronze Frieze's on the Memorial,representing some Battle in India.

I Photographed the Waterloo Frieze but it came out to Blurred,there are Four in All on the 4 sides.

There are also Names of Battles Etched in Bronze or Brass up the sides of the Pyramid.

Closed to Traffic,Phoenix Park

One of the Roads that are closed to Traffic in the Phoenix Park.There are more than I,700 Acres of Parkland and you can Cycle ,go Horse Riding,Jogging,Walk your Doggie.

This is the Furry Glen Area. I tried searching for the Deer but could not find them,they must have been up the Castleknock Area of the Parkland. It is a very big Park with the Presidents Residence,Arus un Uactaroin, or the former Vice Regal Lodge that the Lord Liutenant Lived in in the British Time. The American Embassy Residence. The Garda Headquarters or the Irish Police, The ZOO and also some other Buildings. If you Visit Dublin either Bring your own Bike's or Hire them and go on a Tour of the Park very interesting.
