Limerick Hams to Dalkey by National Library of Ireland on The Commons Via Flickr: For today we have a view of a very familiar scene, O'Connell Bridge from the south side looking up O'Connell Street towards the Pillar. The activity captured here is just fascinating with the electric trams, the trucks, vans, cars and lots and lots of pedestrians. The sign in the foreground which shows that ladies must walk on the road is taking things a little bit too far!
