Tour Galway city (things to do) Ireland travel video guide; visit Ireland tourism attractions2/28/2019 On this episode of Traveling with Krushworth My first stop is Galway, County Galway Before adventuring into the countryside.
Travel with me and walk the streets of this Irish-speaking city. Immerse yourself in the music and culture On a stroll through the Latin Quarter. Don’t miss the historic King’s Head Pub. Sit for a while in Eyre Square, walk through the Spanish Arch this website A part of the medieval system of walls, or cast a line into the River Corrib, I’m in the medieval city of Galway And as you can see, I’m walking down the heart of the centre itself. There’s pubs, there’s buskers, there’s music everywhere. There’s someone just setting up here. It is an amazing place, but as I’m walking around And showing you some of the things to see, I hope you have a great time Traveling with Krushworth Alright, thanks again and see you soon. A city of faith both new and old, Galway has an ages-old medieval past. The church of St. Nicholas, a saint revered by mariners Was visited by Christopher Columbus in 1477. Reflect upon the past, but the city truly lights up When a favourite rugby team wins big. So if you couldn’t tell, it’s Sunday and I found the weekend market. Which takes place throughout in the summer time. There’s food, there’s art vendors It is quite the sight and it stretches on for quite a long ways. Alright I’ll continue on. See you later. Spend time at Salthill's oceanside promenades and then bid farewell to Galway. Venture into the alien Burren region, a landscape inhabited By early people for thousands of years. The Burren in County Clare is an alien-like landscape Known for its ancient inhabitants who scratched out their existence upon the rocks. The Neolithic portal tomb at Poulnabrone stitches together a tapestry Of Ireland’s first farmers, a society with archaic, but telling death rituals. Upon your visit to medieval Kilfenora, it’s easy to see why Travelers are enthralled with the religious high crosses. Gaze at the Doorty Cross and marvel at the 12th century cathedral ruins. Alright, well it was a long trip by bus because of course, I can’t apparate like Dumbledore and Harry Potter did. But if you guys are fans of Half Blood Prince, this was One of the locations in the film for Voldemort’s Horcrux, You know, the scene in the cave But I’ll show you more as I’m walking along See you later. Inishmore, the largest of the Aran Islands Continues to offer visitors a quintessential Irish experience As soon as the ferry lands at the pier. Before the adventure begins, travelers should Explore quaint, picturesque Kilronan town. For those who want to further connect with this ages-old landscape, Rent a bicycle from the shop near the ferry dock before Setting out for the island’s treasured hill fort, Dun Anghosa. Populated since 3,000 BCE, the Aran Islands are a world of Stone Age forts Wedge tombs, early Christian religious sites And a land of storied tradition and immense heritage. Climb the rocky hill to Dun Aonghosa, a stone fort originally built in 1,100 BCE. Walk through the gates, and carefully stand, or crawl To what the ancients saw as the world’s edge. Perched precariously on this bleak outcropping overlooking the Atlantic Ocean This must-see hill fort is a reminder of a turbulent past, But also of a people who built an engineering marvel.

So here I have a dish that is absolutely simple and delicious. It is Crab Claws fried with Garlic Butter. Now it seems like a pretty easy thing to do.
The flavor of this with the sweetness of the fish and the crab claws is absolutely gorgeous, so I’m going to put on a little bit of lemon on top. I’m going to dip them in my garlic butter. And I’m going to go like this. Take it straight off. Then you get this and you go like that. Then you suck out that bit of meat that is in there. Mmm. And that is how you eat a crab claw. Not the most polite way but definitely the most delicious. Mmm. Look at this big bad boy. Crab meat is really delicate. It has a delicate taste and a delicate texture. It just kind of falls apart. Mmm. So when I was a kid we used to come on holidays to Rosslare and we’d rent a house. And in the morning my mum used to go over to the fisherman and she used to ask them for crab claws because they would take the body of the meat of the crab and they would sell it but they would give my mum bags of crab claws. And we were like 7, 8, 9. Pretty young. So she would bring the crab claws home. And she would cook them. And she would give us big bowls of crab claws and we would just sit there watching TV eating them. I can still picture myself sitting there eating them and I can almost taste them. You know when people talk about their final meal, definitely mine would be a whole lot of seafood, shellfish, prawns, crab, lobster. All that sort of stuff. That’s the way I want to go… The world has become so filled with fast food chains and large restaurants but it’s still nice to see a family run place…especially one that has been around so long. Even though my seafood lunch was epic, I’m still on the hunt for more great Eats to show you and I think I know just the thing… Now I know a convenience store doesn’t seem like the kind of place a food lover should be but wait and i tell you… Shops all over Ireland serve this giant ice cream famously known as a 99… This is what you have when you go to the beach, it’s summertime in Ireland or Britain. It’s soft serve ice cream…mmm…with a Cadbury’s flake stuck into it. Now why it’s called a 99, I have absolutely no idea. All I know is that it’s absolutely delicious. And this reminds me so much of my childhood and summers and being off school. Yep, you can’t beat a 99. Ireland isn’t always thought of as a food destination but whether it’s freshly baked goods, seafood straight from the ocean or simply delicious desserts, you’ll find some of the best food you’ve ever had here. I guarantee it. Coming up Next week on Gemma Eats… I enjoy a traditional Irish Breakfast Find out what a Folacht Fia is?? And see me brave the elements to enjoy the best fish and chips around…all right here on Gemma Eats. So it’s pretty cold and rainy today so it’s a nice day for soup and being in a seafood restaurant you have to order their Seafood Chowder because you just know it’s going to be good. All of this fish is sourced locally in Wexford. Just look at that. How meaty it is and those gorgeous muscles.
We’re really fortunate in Wexford to get really great fish and shellfish. It is so good. Mmm. So you get such different chowders all over the world. But generally in Ireland you get a creamy base chowder. Now it’s not generally really really thick. It has a little bit of a touch of cream. And then some local fish. Some Shellfish. A few vegetables in there. Chowder is serious comfort food. It’s like a hug for your heart. It makes such a difference when your produce is sourced locally. It’s as fresh as it can be. The seafood and the shellfish is that little bit sweet. There is not fishiness from this. Good fish should never smell or even taste like fish. It should taste like the seawater and that’s what this tastes like. Oh, I could eat that all day long. So the whole reason I came here is for this dish. It’s called Crab Mornay and it’s crab meat with a cheesy saucy on top. Now this crab is fished in Carne, where we are right now in the Southeast of Ireland. Just check that out. Do you see the crab? And the cheese sauce? The thing about it is it’s not really rich. It’s absolutely beautiful. A little bit salty. Decadent. Yummy. Make sure I don’t eat it too fast and burn my mouth. You know what. When they say some things never change. That’s not a bad thing. It tastes the exact same as it did when I was a kid. It’s absolutely gorgeous. One of the reasons why I love crab meat and a lot of shellfish is that little bit of sweetness and the little bit of saltiness from the seawater. And the cheese sauce on top is a Wexford Cheddar Cheese Sauce so that is also cheese that comes from the local town. I’ll tell you. It doesn’t get much better than this. So years ago, probably when I was in my early teens, they filmed the movie Saving Private Ryan here. Not a lot of people know that but they filmed it in Wexford on one of our really big beaches. And I remember the film crew actually came here to The Lobster Pot to eat and I was just astonished. I thought that was absolutely amazing. People from Hollywood going to The Lobster Pot.

I’ve recently found two new FREE games online that I think are a lot of fun. Not only are these educational games fun but they are also great learning tools. You could use these games as a teacher or as a parent or heck even just for fun if you are an adult
I hope you will all go check these out! Even if you don’t have a class to use them with right now they could go into your lesson plans for next year. But….to be perfectly honest I like them so much I keep going back to them for myself. Especially the Budget Hero. It is really interesting to see how the changes you make affect the economy. It’s made me rethink what I want in a president. Try out the games and let me know what you think! Will you use them in a class or with your own children? Were they fun for you? Wow. So this is the first year that the students I watched grow up are going to graduate. This years high school graduation will have students I taught in the seventh and eighth grades. I should say, they aren’t the only students I’ve taught that have graduated but this is the first class (as in all of the graduating class) that I’ve taught. I’m getting a little emotional. Overall I think they might have been my favorites although the class behind them is so close it is hard to tell.
So graduation is in a few weeks and although I don’t usually go to things like that I think I’m probably going to go with my best friend, who was also their teacher. I’ve been to Orlando and New York with a lot of these kids and watched them grow up into beautiful young men and women. It’s almost like watching my own kids grow up I guess because for the last six years they were my kids. What with me not having children of my own and all. I can’t even begin to imagine how emotional I will be at my sons high school graduation. Since I haven’t been a teacher as long as probably most of the people that will read this I might sound naive. I wonder if more experienced teachers ever stop feeling sappy? I guess around the time that I stopped feeling like all of the kids were mine was when I probably decided I wouldn’t make it for an entire 30 years in public education. I guess I get too emotionally vested in the first little rugrats. Boy would they laugh if they knew I said that. They all thought I was mean and evil…among the many cute names I heard was ’soul sucker’ ‘the evil one’ ‘general’…teehee. And those are the ones I feel comfortable typing out ;) Time for me to end this post before I go down a line of thought about why I won’t be a career teacher in public education. I write my essay to ask you important questions: Crazy to love something so much that you can’t do it, huh? Did you have a favorite class of students? Was your favorite class one of your firsts? How is their high school graduation affecting you this year? This is a question I’ve asked myself repeatedly. As a teacher mentor it was my job to take a new teacher and teach him or her everything he didn’t learn in teacher school and that was usually a lot. I’ve tried for years to perfect my teacher burnout radar so I can step in and offer more help before I lose them completely. Unfortunately, the warning signs are sometimes hard to spot but there are a few things that always make my radar go Beep! Beep! Beep!
• If a teacher says she has all of the problem children Well this is just never true, but if the teacher in question thinks it is there is a problem. Usually this means she needs to be taught classroom management skills or I will lose her. • If a teacher says she is grading papers all weekend No one is going to last long if they are working all week and then bringing home more stuff and working for free. Yes, I said for free. Any time a teacher is devoting outside of her school hours she does for free and this eventually causes resentment. When I hear about this free work I know it is time to step in and help rework the way she is grading. If she can’t do it during work hours something needs to change. No free time is a sure way to burn out. • If students love or hate a teacher I’ve noticed that if there are excessive amounts of either emotion with a brand new teacher then it is because they are becoming too personally involved with the students. This is bad on so many levels and usually leads to the teacher feeling overwhelmed because she is focusing on a personal connection instead of teaching. Yes, I know personal connections are necessary but you’ll have to trust me when I say there needs to be a line between personal and professional. • A lot of parent conferences It doesn’t matter if they’ve been requested by the parent or the teacher. If a teacher is in a conference every week then something is wrong. This is almost always a communication problem. There are many reasons for this one and it usually takes a little digging to get to the bottom of it. At one point or another I’ve been through all of these phases which is one of the reasons they ring bells for me. How do you know if you, or a colleague, is in danger of burning out? If you feel you are burning out and want to continue teaching, tell me what your specific concerns are and I’ll try to help! |
