And  consequently the temperatures are forecasted to go down towards the  weekend. However, there are meant to be even SOME dry spells on  Saturday and Sunday and with more events this weekend, let&#8217;s hope that  that comes true.<\/p>\n<p>This weekend there are three relevant events:<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; &#8220;Urban Garden&#8221; on Smithfield Plaza<br \/>\n&#8211; Music in Temple Bar on Meeting House Square<br \/>\n&#8211; Dublin City Council Family Activity Day<\/p>\n<p>The Urban Garden event on Saturday sounds interesting, but I can&#8217;t  imagine what and how it will be. It will be on this weekend and in two  weeks time.<\/p>\n<p>Yurodny &#038; Myriada are two musical groups that will perform in Meeting  House Square at 4pm on Sunday as part of the Temple Bar Diversions  Festival.<\/p>\n<p>If you have children or have nephews and nieces to entertain or can  get a loan of children from a neighbour or friend, (Don&#8217;t loan them  from unsuspecting parents in shopping centres!) the Dublin City Family  Activity Day might be interesting. This week it is in Sandymount  Green, but more locations will be visited over the summer and the  dates are below.<\/p>\n<p>As always all events are free!<\/p>\n<p>Have a look at the Temple Bar website <a class=\"moz-txt-link-abbreviated\" href=\"http:\/\/www.templebar.ie\/\">www.templebar.ie<\/a>! As part of the  Diversions Festival, Temple Bar has lots of outdoor cinema screenings  at weekends (Saturday) and during the week. All screenings are free  but you need to get tickets beforehand. The website (follow the link  to the Diversions Festival) lists the details.<\/p>\n<p>Have a good rest of the week and an even better weekend.<\/p>\n<p>Regards,<\/p>\n<p>&#8211;Joerg<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;-<\/p>\n<p>Urban Garden, Smithfield 23rd June and 7th of July<\/p>\n<p>As Dublin develops as a European City, apartment living is becoming  the norm.

Prior to this performance, both groups will  engage in a period of collaboration toward a common musical lingua  franca, with new compositions that make their debut in Meeting House  Square. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s the latest project from saxophonist Nick Roth, whose  imaginative style has yielded a diverse range of Irish music  initiatives, including the boundary stretching Kai Big Band and  Dublin\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s annual Klezmer Festival.<br \/>\nNo tickets required<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;<\/p>\n<p>Dublin City Council Family Activity Days 3.00-5.00<\/p>\n<p>24th of June at Sandymount Green<br \/>\n1st of July at Bunting Road<br \/>\n8th of July at Fairview Park<br \/>\n22nd of July John Paul Park<br \/>\n29th of July Johnstown Park<\/p>\n<p>3.00pm \u00e2\u20ac\u201c 5.00pm<\/p>\n<p>Activities will include, bouncing castles, face painters, puppet and  magic show, circus skills and live music.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi All, It is Wednesday and that means the weekend can&#8217;t be toooooo far away :-) and as I will be too busy tomorrow, I am sending this mail already today.
