"Abrams Kathleen on that trip and trips you've taken since then to ireland and one you took when in the nineteen sixties a teenager The have favorite places in ireland. That stand out. Oh my gosh. i'm in love with ireland and in nineteen sixty. Six is a high school kid. I went with a friend and her mother to the aaron islands. And that's the only place we went. Her mom was an artist. We we spent a week there and she painted and we went to the sessions. I think they're called at night. There was no electricity and we just listened to irish music and it was it was it. I fell in love with ireland. Then and then a few years ago i took another sister to to another part of ireland and that was in donegal county donegal and To visit her where her ancestors came from her. Grandmother's family. Chris law and That way up in the northern part of ireland northern ireland but in the northern part of the republican ireland. Well what's funny about that. Is people in the republic put their noses in the air when anyone refers to northern ireland and the south because the republic of ireland while most of it is south of northern ireland which logically make some sense the most northern points on the island that are that is ireland are in donnie. Go which is part of the republic so when you go into donegal you've got this big square lake county kind of looks like a square rectangle and then coming off the top. The most northern part of county donegal is the rest of the county donegal which is like a peninsula that goes northward and eastward and wraps around the top of northern ireland so maidenhead the most northern point on the island that is ireland is not in northern ireland. it's in donegal in the republic and that peninsula. that comes off of donegal. while it's very much part of county donegal. They is referred to as into showing. And if you know the plays of martin mcdonagh the fellow that did the screenplay that won the academy award for three billboards in. I think it's eddington missouri or something like that He's his family is from there originally although he grew up in london and he writes a lot of plays about inishmore and inishmaan. And it's all referencing that In a show in peninsula area. It's very cool so Whether there any other things you wanted to mention that people could put down on there. I must see that to list. Oh well donegal absolutely erin. Islands absolutely We also visited Eden county In county kildare bolton abbey of course sister rosalie. Who paid with me on that trip. In two thousand seventeen is a benedictine sister from saint scope and she has a friend. At bolton abbey practice place in county county kildare said and that was supposed to be a one hour trip from dublin. Airport right for me driving on the left hand side first time in my life. It turned out to be a three hour trip. My hands off new wonderful has been marked how he got us around two thousand eight. Oliver ireland lawless played. A good news was it was september. You should be with us. When it's january or february and you get to the higher elevations up in the mountains. And there's snow and ice on the road on those whitey twisty roads then you have to complementary skills. I wanna thank you for joining us. Today it's been a pleasure having you with us and to everybody else we're flying. I its travel with stephanie. Abrams the live from fort smith. Arkansas is kathleen. A recipient of a stephanie. Abrams travel fairy godmother trip that she acted as the travel companion and good friend of sister. Catherine marquis from saint scholastica monastery in fort smith arkansas. Who wanted to get to ireland before her eightieth birthday literally the trip was in september of two thousand eight and when that trip ended Sister catherine had birthday almost immediately. I i mentioned something in the last segment of about going up steps into the library I don't think you go up steps. I think going on the main level and you're looking up at a catwalk walkway. That's way up there. But you're i think you're on the main level. It's been since i was inside but it's an amazing experience and of course it's a trinity college is A thriving college campus. And you feel the energy of that and the students in the heart of dublin A great area of dublin. Where there's so much going on you walk out the grounds of trinity college and you'll find a place called the irish whiskey museum. And it's not like the other tasting experiences and informational experience at tullamore. Who makes more do. And the d. e. w. is for the name of the guy who was his initials of the guy that may that may tell them more. Do may tell them. More whiskey famous. It's not like going to a bushmills jamison or There are a number of feelings in dublin also Because each of those is promoting their own brand really and their own history. The irish history of the irish whiskey museum covers about. I don't know a thousand or ten thousand years. I think it's a thousand years of irish whiskey history just as the development of the product and at the end they don't you know they they have whiskey tasting of all kinds of places and you can go slurp to your heart's content But something. I pay us on by the way because i don't drink but i so enjoyed that experience and then whole area call temple bar make sure you go Down fleet street and walk from the main street down. Fleet street to the river liffey That's an experience generally when you see promotions for ireland you will in the video. There's a spot where you see all these people in the street. And they're all walking in.

"With Stephanie Abrams on the line with me is Kathleen Jarvis. She lives in Fort Smith, Arkansas. She has been a volunteer. At the monastery at Fort Smith ST Scholastica for many, many years, probably decades now. Um She Committed ourselves to helping None she befriended. Sister, Catherine Marquis. Oh, is still living at the monastery and Fort Smith, Arkansas toe help her connect with her Irish roots. And sister Catherine was approaching 80 years old. Of all the places that we sorted out. For you to visit before we joined you on the fourth day of your journey through Ireland. On for the rest of that trip that we spent together. What are the things that come to mind? Maybe you can list them and then we can delve into them a little better. Well, what are the things that stand out beyond the amazing people? Which we need to talk about in Ireland. Um Of the places that we visited the experiences we had. Well, I cash it. Actually, you've given me a hard job. I I would have to say that not Woz way up there on top of the list E visiting of in County Mayo, the knots trying to marry in trying, which is, by the way, I read that it's visited by A million and a half people every year. Um and I would have to say the I think it was called the famine ship. That that Brody Right gun, Probably famine ship in County Wexford again, please. What was that again? It's in county, Wexford County. Wexford is the Easter, Southeastern County and Ireland. And when you travel westward from Wexford The next county that abuts it is Waterford and most people know what effort because of Waterford Crystal because of what it for castle and also because Woodford is the place historically. That the beast Oliver Cromwell. Who? Somebody I can't believe it. Megan Megan McCain, Um, commented on something a few weeks back, and she pointed to Oliver Cromwell is a source. I don't know why in the world she would bring up that awful man's name. Hey, was miserable to the Irish. And, um, miserable all around and responsible for, um, killing the king of England. Ending the idea of that the King is descended from God. You can't kill the king. Even in chess. You just not come over, but you can't kill him. But in Waterford, he's the one Oliver Cromwell, who wanted Waterford because there's such a strong pork. And he told his soldiers you go in there and you take Waterford for May. And really, I don't care how you get it. You can come in from Crook's head. Or from hook. So you get it by hook or by crook. Which of the two places look on the map of the south of Ireland on the Atlantic Coast line, and you will see the places of of crooks head and hook and we have taken that in our language as get it by any means. When we say you get it, by hook or by crook. It leads back to an Irish story is not amazing. But that's all just to the west of County Wexford. It's amazing how much you know of Irish history. Well, us that favorite spots I have to tell you. Another outstanding place was Trinity College. You know, of course, the sister. Katherine for so many years had been the arc of this that at ST Scholastica, she's she is a true intellectual. Let me tell you, she was in her glory at Trinity in her glory. Uh, Sure you could tell us all about Trinity color? Well, the interesting thing about Trinity College in Dublin is that when you.
