LIVEDonal's Irish Adventure - Galway
Donal Skehan and his trusty canine companion Max are headed west in search of the scenery, tranquility, and of course, the delicious food that Galway has to offer. Donal invites us to follow along as gets up close and personal with Connemara ponies and learns to bring his own personality to traditional "Sean Nos" Dancing, all while taking in the unmatched beauty and character that he encounters at every turn. Next up, the pair hop on the ferry to the Arran Island of Inis Mor and find that there's no better way to take in his surroundings than by horse and trap! However, gazing in awe over the dizzying heights of the UNESCO World Heritage Site Dun Aonghasa leaves Donal a bit peckish, so he sets off to Kylemore Abbey, where the historic setting provides a perfect backdrop as he shares the best way to prepare fresh, local oysters. Max soon meets his match when he and Donal witness a demonstration by Joy Joyce, expert sheepdog trainer, and his dogs, then it's off for a spot of lunch at Misunderstood Heron in Ireland's only fjord, Killary Fjord. A trip on a traditional Galway Hooker fishing boat is the perfect way to round out Donal's unique journey to reveal the true charm of Ireland's west coast.
