Waterford
donal's irish adventure

Donal and his trusty sheepdog Max venture to the East Coast of Ireland to the land of Crystal, Vikings and dog yoga(?) in County Waterford. Waterford is one of the largest counties on the island of Ireland and is home to charming seaside villages and beautiful beaches. It was recently voted the best place to live in Ireland. The adventure kicks off on Waterford's famous greenway cycle path,, a disused railway track connecting Dungarvan to Waterford city. Here, Donal meets local skater girl "Bonnie Boux" for a chat about why she loves to practice her moves on the greenway. After a swift tutorial it's time to say goodbye to Bonnie and Donal travels to the Gaeltacht area (Irish language speaking) of the county. Here, he visits Solas na Mara (solace of the sea) for some old fashioned rest and relaxation in their unique seaweed baths. All this chill time calls for a hearty meal as Donal prepares simple and comforting Bangers and mashed parsnips with crispy black pudding.
