I think I need a hamburger..

With the dreadful creatures pulling each other's hair out,  CW in front of the Olympics (aside--have to like the Irish commentator today--as one of the USA women's relay team was being awarded its gold by an IOC official who happened to be a Sikh, the comment was, "They trot out some strange fellows don't they"--tomorrow an Irish boxer will be going for the gold; great to be in a country with so much pride on the line while watching a sporting event.aside over) and Dado was chopping and stacking wood.  So, I got on with my touring.  Drove down to New Ross, County Wexford and boarded the Dunbrody, a "famine" ship" that sailed to New York in 1845 full of hungry Irish people.  Character actors portrayed the various passengers/crew who would have been onboard and let's just say it would have been no Queen Mary 2.  Anyone needing to straighten out their over-indulged children would be wise to give them a "Scared Straight" experience here.
