Joseph follows in the footsteps of St. Patrick, Ireland's Patron Saint, when he wanders by foot and travels by car along the Way and Trail of St. Patrick in Northern Ireland. In this episode Joseph encounters Patrick's history in the grand Roman Catholic and Church of Ireland cathedrals in Armagh, the ecclesiastical capital of Ireland. He visits with fifth century Celts at Navin Centre & Fort and then travels on to other sacred and mythical sites, washing his face in St. Patrick's Well and sitting in the saint's Chair. Along the rugged Irish coast he visits the Giant's Causeway and finds plenty of comfort and good cheer at Bushmill's historic distillery. He travels on to Northern Ireland's capital, Belfast, and tours the University, Titanic and Cathedral Quarters and drops into a few pubs for a pint of Guinness or two to quench his thirst. By the end of his Belfast stay he's prepared to move on to Downpatrick, Patrick's burial place, for all the festivities and celebrations surrounding the saint's day.
