Michael's earliest memories revolve around his grandmother's residence situated in the quaint Leighlinbridge village. Revisiting this cherished locale, he immerses himself in the riverside existence of Carlow. His adventure continues with a visit to a different Disney land. He engages in the art of lace making in Borris, an enclave that has evolved around a stately estate. In a conversation with a broadcasting luminary, he gains insights into the world of media. Pausing in Graiguenamanagh, nestled on the Kilkenny border, he acquaints himself with the historical looms at Cushendale. His journey then takes a tranquil turn as he strolls through the serene environs of Saint Mullin, learning about secret masses and enjoying performances from both the traditional ballad ensemble, Green Road, and the uniquely unconventional Grainne Hunt.
