Isobel doesn't entirely look up for it
The Dún Laoghaire 10k Run, County Dublin, Ireland - 6th August 2018
Whilst we're over in County Dublin, Isobel does the Dún Laoghaire 10k (that's six miles in old money) run, along with James. Afterwards, we visit the sea at Seafort Parade in Williamstown and follow that up with an ice-cream treat from Scrumdiddly's - aparently the place to be, at least according to the queues.

Fred's up some sort of playground aparatus
Jamie and Isobel walk down the street to the start
There's some building work on the sea front
Some sort of derelict passage to the sea
Isobel and Jamie wander around
Down at Dún Laoghaire
Children play in a giant sea-urchin sculpture
A sea of orange tops
Been there, Dún that
The starting line is prepared
Some dude looks out over the sea of orange
Someone famous poses for a photo at the start line
The mayor of Dún Laoghaire has a pistol
The runners gather behind the start line
Knobbly knees
The runners prepare
The clock is set to zero
The race commences
Isobel waves
James waves to Fred and Harry as the runners pass by
Push-chair racers follow up
More buggy runners
There's another mass of people at the fun run start
The mayor is on hand to start the 1.5k family run
The family run run explodes out of the start
Stragglers follow up on the rear
Fred lies down in a big sea-shell sculpture
The starting line is rapidly taken down
A wrecked phone box
The race leader runs past at around the 30 minute mark
More runners come up the hill
A father/son busking combo, with clarinet
A sprint to the finish
A woman from the US waits for her sister
Medals are ready for handing out
It's all a bit much for some
The jubilation of finishing
Some kids wave
Another exhausted runner
Batman finishes
James crosses the line
Another hand-in-hand finish
Isobel comes in shortly afterwards
Runner gather near the DART station
A group photo
Milling around by the harbour building
James and Isobel
Isobel does a selfie with Jamie
Back at Da Gorls, we prepare for a trip to the sea
The boys on the bridge over the DART
The children run off into the shallows
Isobel and Wayne out at sea
Annalua on a body-board
Wayne and Finlay
Finlay runs around in his pants
Isobel, Harry and Wayne
Out on the mudflats
Annalua's proud of her captured shrimp
Back on the sea wall
The wide open mud flats of Dublin Bay
The gang climb over the wall
Harry guards the way on Graffiti Bridge
The derelict house by the hospital car park
We walk along Crofton Road
The queue at Scrumdiddly's
Fred and Harry hang out in the queu
The children peer into the window
We get to the end of the queue
Harry tentatively licks his topping
A load of ice cream
Harry and Annalua outside
Hanging around eating ice cream
Wayne stirs his concoction
Like spare tracks in a model railway
We de-camp to the nearby grass verge
Hanging around on Crofton Street
Fred watches a DART rumble past
Fred and Annalua pop out from behind a tree
A derelict buffer
More derelict buffers
It's not quite Abbey Road
Evelyn and Isobel share a phone moment
Louise is on her phone
Fred reads Nicholas a Lua a bedtime story
