    The beekeeper reminds me of:
    "NO! NOT THE BEES!" - The Wicker Man
    "My dog stepped on a bee" - She-who-must-not-bee-named
    7:35, "Its like a bee!"

    Hearing your voice in the start of this one, I got such a sense of familiarity! Deja vu-ish. I thought and searched my deepest memories and I remembered being around 7 years old and listening to some relatives on my mom's side at a family reunion! I'm guessing likely cousins. It was such a warm recollection. Thank you, Claire. 💕

    Interesting you say "Up home" and here it's "Down home". Hard to tell if it held up to the name "American Bar" just looking at the outside, I've seen places that looke worse and better. Ohhhhh you did a little something I've heard you fuss about utter the words "Top of the morning t'ya". Love the heritage day stalls with goods on offer. Not to destroy the "magic" just a loop from a fish tank type pump to circulate the water from milk can and back up to the bucket entering where the hand is touching. Thanks for the tour as always love the sights, best to you and yours as always, scritches Miss Millie.

    Knowing of you firstly from the try channel I would never have guessed how much u love rugby, how fit you are, how much you enjoy history etc
    Hope u enjoy all your travels
    Thanks for such a great insight into a world I have a small connection with (I grew up around Irish people in Kilburn north London, and my families personal friends were all Irish, I’d check the pools for Marie devlin at 4-5 yrs old every week. The DOB club only let 3 families in, us williansons being one, then the devlins and I can’t for life of me remeber the other family as the devlins were huge!!)
    All the saying u say I grew up with I understand the quickness of an Irish accent and it brings me comfort and reminds me of my Nan god rest when I hear you
    Thank you xxx

    I'm beginning to rely on your videos to show me the places on my Ancestry bucket list. I used to live in a town in Louisiana which is the oldest permanent settlement in the Louisiana Purchase called Natchitoches (pronounced Nak-a-tish). It was incorporated in 1714, three years before New Orleans. They have a lot of those kinds of historical festivals with re-enactors showing things from the past. Plus, several bars or pubs.

A few days in Dublin, then up the Wild Atlantic Way to the Inishowen Peninsula with a quick stop at Árainn Mhór to bring tidings from her twin here, Lake Michigan's Beaver Island. Won't have an itinerary, but will be out 'n about, hope to run into you & Alex. Slàinte Mhath

    My great grandma was from Mayo. I remember talking to me at length as a kid I couldn't understand a word she said.
    Take a Mayo accent and put about 55 years of east Oklahoma on top of it.
    It didn't help that she was 90 and I was around 5.
    I'm just glad mother could translate.

    As always, you are informative. adorable, and a Grand Character of a woman. Glad that you had a chance to visit the festival and Co Mayo.
    Wonder if you got some drone footage of the view over the cliff or did you have to abandon that because of the rain.
    The 'American Pub' would only be 'authentic' to the New England / Northern East portion of the USA, at least from the outside style.
    The milk in the statue circulates in the same manner as water in a indoor water fountain not connected to a water source. (hoses and a pump run by batteries or other power source)

      Its the 63rd sign ,the first was probably in county louth on the east coast and they went clockwise along the irish coast.The Idea was to let german bombers know that they were flying over a neutral country therefore on every headland there had to an eire sign which worked for the most part but dublin was stilled bombed by the germans.

    Journalism is alive and well in Mayo as it is in Dublin and anywhere else Clare goes in her native Irelnd. It won't mean anything to you, but you remind me a bit of Charles Kuralt who videoed his way about the USA for CBS. His segments were called On The Road and were a much anticipated and much lauded feature of the CBS Evening News with Walter Cronkite from 1967 on. Those were the days when people trusted their newspeople. Look him up on Wikipedia. Hi to Millie.
