Days 4 - The trip from Dublin to Wexford

We were picked up by and guided through all historic landmarks by Donal and his son, Brendan.
By the end of the day, my head was full of information.

I have never seen the TV series, so this is a stretch for me.

Picture 1 is the local church
Picture 2 is the street running through town
Picture 3 is the local pub
Picture 4 is the Bishop's church located a distance away on the program
(in actuality, across the bridge and down the road).

Days 5 - Sightseeing from Wexford to Waterford

I wanted to see the world renowned Waterford Crystal Factory. Donal drove us there
and we were treated to more information and history of the region.

The Dunbrody Famine Ship Exhibit, New Ross

Referenced on the Clare webpage, the famine ships transported Irish
emigrants to the continent, to North America and to Australia. Many of
these ships were deathtraps. The story of the Dunbrody Famine Ship
is well documented at the website:
