We delve into his poetry, understanding the depth of his words and the impact of Irish heritage on his artistry. As promised, here's a link to his Nobel Lecture: • Nobel Lecture by Seamu...

We spent two weeks in Ireland this summer and had and amazing time. GO TO IRELAND !!!!

[@shepgreenberg7659]

It’s so cool to see you guys walking on the same places that I did!….good times

[@jeanninekalua9016]

What a beautiful city to visit. Thank you for sharing Dublin, I hope to one day visit as well.

[@niall2977]

Come back again soon! ❤

[@chrisplusmelissa]

We shall try.

[@furnacefighter]

We just got back from an eleven day loop tour of Ireland. Agree with you totally that all we needed was more days everywhere! Kenmare was a great stop. Thought it was going to be just a comfort stop but we found some interesting treasures, friendly locals, and fantastic food and drinks. Had our eyes pealed for you guys but no C & M sightings. Tom Wilson the actor who played Biff in the “Back to the Future” trilogy referred to himself as a low level celebrity. Can you go out incognito or are you drawing a following.

[@chrisplusmelissa]

Ha ha... we're not THAT known... although we were recognized 3X while in Ireland.

[@gerarddeegan1164]

Ten of us are traveling dublin and ireland in march and for st patricks day for two weeks😁☘🍀

[@chrisplusmelissa]

Oh my.. that sounds like a ton of fun.

Seems like you didn't realize when going into the "Bank of Ireland" you were actually entering the former Irish parliament which was abolished in 1800 with the Act of Union which created the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. You could have had a quick look into the former Irish House of Lords. I think the Brazen Head is now a tourist trap - dozens of other great Dublin pubs to choose from - The Palace Bar, The Long Hall, O'Donoghues, Toners, the Cobblestone, to name a few. Skip Temple Bar. Can understand your desire to see the Seamus Heaney Museum but you would also love MOLI (Museum of Literature Ireland). When you were at St Patrick's you could have gone to see Marsh's Library, a gem. Also close by to Dublin Castle is The Chester Beatty Library. Other places you could have gone to: the National Gallery, the Fabulous Hugh Lane (City of Dublin Gallery), the Royal Hibernian Academy (a contemporary art museum), the Irish Museum of Modern Art in the fabulous classical former Royal Hospital Kilmainham; Kilmainham Gaol, one of the most nostalgic museums in Ireland; the National Museum of Ireland now housed in the amazing Collins Barracks , formerly a British Army barracks; the Casino at Marino, the most beautiful Palladian building in Ireland. Plus dozens of concert halls, theaters and performance spaces! Maybe you did some of these on your previous visits!

[@chrisplusmelissa]

Thanks! We had no idea that we were entering the former Irish parliament. The only thing on your list that we've been to and shared in our other video is Kilmainham Gaol. Thank you for the list -- it looks like it gives us plenty of good reasons to revisit Dublin for a greater length of time!

[@strandkind2116]

On the other side of Bank of Ireland is the Irish Whiskey Museum. You definitely have to go there if you come to Dublin again. Kind regards from Germany 😘🇮🇪🇩🇪

[@chrisplusmelissa]

Thank you for the recommendation! We shall add it to our next time in Dublin wish list.

[@tableofcontentslsad]

Please return, I'm sure you'll have a great time yet again. slán abhaile (safe home)

[@markhawthorne4752]

Thank you for your Ireland videos and recommending the Brazen Head. My wife and I will be visiting Dublin in a few weeks, and we're both vegan, so we're excited to try the vegan pie at the pub!

[@chrisplusmelissa]

I loved it! I hope you do too. Cheers! We've been very impressed by the many of the restaurants in Ireland. They often have a clear allergy guide and it's not uncommon for there to be at least one vegan option on the menu.

[@chrisplusmelissa]

And we wish we were heading to Dublin in a few weeks. It's such a great city. We always want to go back.

[@markhawthorne4752]

@@chrisplusmelissa Oh, thank you. We hope we have luck finding vegan scones!

[@kerrill88]

Seans Bar in Athlone is in the Guinness book of records as the oldest pub in the world .

[@chrisplusmelissa]

I guess we'll have to go to that one as well. :)

[@GiT5UM]

ah but sure The Brazzen Head just say that they are the oldest in Ireland, so no problem😉😂

[@gallowglass2630]

No debate seans bar in athlone is the oldest by 200 years better records and better scientific evidence
