The most deeply moving part of experiemcing DUBLIN, IRELAND for a few days was visiting KILMAINHAM GAOL a former prison in Dublin, Ireland. It is now a museum that is a crucial site for understanding Irish history, particularly the struggle for independence, as it held and executed many leaders of rebellions, including the 1916 Easter Rising.

A few things that struck me the most was that they put starving men and women, including children begging for food in the streets, sometimes without parents, and one child was even three years old when put in this prison to clean up the streets. Heartbreaking stuff.

Prisoners of note were 14 rebels from 1916 Easter Rising, 7 of which signed the proclamation of independance of the Republic of Ireland. There were 4 eighteen-nineteen year old young men that revolted as Ireland was focused on fighting in World War I, that were executed in this prison (the exact spot is where there is a wood cross in my photographs) and when word spread on what happened this event was the catalyst for Ireland to fight and gain their liberty and freedom as a Republic in 1922.

Another interesting note is that Eamonn De Valeria, who was in there in 1920, was born in NYC so an American citizen. He was a rebel but not executed due to him being an American citizen. He went on to become President De Valera, President Of Ireland.

It was deeply impactful to sit in the prison Church Chapel where two inmates of Kilmainham Jail – JOSEPH PLUNKET and GRACE GIFFORD got married and were able to spend 10 minutes together supervised by guards, the day before JOSEPH PLUNKET was executed. I visited and took photos of Grace and Joseph’s cells from the outside. GRACE had a mural she painted of the Virgin Mary inside here cell that I tried to photograph through the cell door peep hole.

ROD STEWART sings a beautiful version of the song GRACE, written by The Dubliners, about this story of Joseph Plunket and Grace Gifford. Rod Stewart visited the jail before he recorded the song GRACE. Song Link: https://youtu.be/HQQ1LP5rCOM?is=N2FWVXx8bq45qjPa

Kilmainham Jail is singularly the most historic place in ireland. I am grateful that I was able to visit with my loved friend PAT BUTLER.

I had the unique privilege to visit FOUR KNOCKS TOMB with my Lucky Leprechaun native Dublin buddy that I have now nicknamed and dubbed PAT “THE CATMAN” BUTLER <3! and go inside the Four Knocks Tomb on our own just the two of us.l. FOUR KNOCKS is a significant Neolithic passage tomb in County Meath, Ireland, dating back about 5,000 years, contemporary with Newgrange. It features a cruciform chamber with intricate carvings, including THE FIRST DEPICTION OF A HUMAN FACE in Irish prehistoric art, and was discovered in 1949 on farm land, with excavations revealing human remains and grave goods now in the National Museum.

I climbed on the grassy top of FOUR KNOCKS TOMB thoughtfully and carefully and Believe I was gifted with the best view of North Dublin and South Dublin anywhere,on this high ground that indigenous Irish chose for this tomb (my photograph included here.)

With all these exciting experiences it was now time for The Catman <3! and I (The Dog of NY) to head home & refresh,& enjoy Dowie “The Cat Queen of Dublin <3!, & myself enjoy a few pints of that fine Dublin Guinness! :)!
