Dublin attractions in November?

Again, thanks to all who have indulged my questions about Dublin. This will be our first trip to Ireland, so I'm really looking forward to it!!

We will be in Dublin on November 21-24, 2007. Will the good attractions be open during this time of the year?

Thanks!

Juan.

Yes, Dublin gets tourists all year round, so everything is open. The only thing that might affect you is that it gets dark early - about 4.30pm.

Did Dublin end of October 2005 and everything we wanted to see was open.

My "fav's" were:
Newgrange tour
Trinity College & Book of Kells
Evensong at Christ Church Cathedral
Dublin Castle

other three I hope to get in on this trip-
Kilmainham Gaol
Nat'l Gallery
and DH had decided he wants to do the Guinness Brewery

It really seemed as though Dublin was well prepared to cater to tourism throughout the year and the only thing we noticed is that some things closed an hour or so earlier that they did during the summer.

Definitely get out to Kilmainham! I wish I had time this trip to get back there, but we are only taking one day in Dublin this trip. And my wife has decided that she needs to do the Guinness Brewery. (I'm more of a Bass Ale man, myself).

How's the weather that late in the year compared to spring?

Jefe-
(hi again)
Maybe do what I am considering- leaving DH to Guinness and heading to Kilmainham meself!

According to the weather station I have from Wicklow it is supposed to be colder in April than it is in October by about 8-10 degrees, although when we were there in Oct '05 Dublin was wet and cool but I did not feel cold. I have been told to expect the weather to be in the 40's.

Here's a link to the weather info. I found...
