Palms at Dun Laoghaire

Dun Laoghaire I took a commuter train [we were packed like sardines from Dublin] to the ferry port of Dun Laoghaire to catch the Stena Ferry to Holyhead Wales.
This is how huge the ferry was [even bigger that P+O Irish Sea]. It had casinos, duty free shops, restaurants, bars and little did I know I had purchased a deluxe ticket so could have all the wine I wanted [plus an 'all you can eat buffet']. I showed moderation. Others [later on the train with me through Wales] had not shown restraint and it was quite a scene for the 7 hours it took to get to Cardiff.
