Susan is a great host. Her house is very comfortable, located in Swords. You can easily access from Swords to Dublin City Centre by " Swords Express" bus. It runs constantly.- Swords is an interesting town itself. I explored it and found it very nice.- In fact, I traveled to Ireland to see the St Patricks parade on the 17th of March, and I ended up watching the St Patricks parade at Swords, and at Dublin.- Weather is windy, rainy, cold by this time of the year. Ireland, Dublin, Swords are beautiful, as well as Irish people.
