David and the crew were all in Dublin for St. Paddy’s Day. We brought along a Marching Band from Florida, and a bunch of their supporters, 180 people in all! In this episode, we’ll share some of the fun and celebration.
I’ve put together my Best of Dublin video walking tour. We’ll visit many of Dublin’s historical and cultural tourist sites using Google Earth Pro images and my own photos.

David continues his 4-part series Dublin Walking Tours with visits to O’Connell Street and Temple Bar. The RECIPE for tonight is Irish Shepherd’s Pie.
The Irish were under English domination from 1177 until 1922. That’s more than 700 years! It wasn’t until the 20th century that the Irish broke away and formed their own country. David takes a virtual walk down O’Connell Street, and puts all the pieces together leading up to Irish independence.
