Walks or Cycling
suggestion while staying at the Trading Post Wexford Caravan and Camping
Park:
The
1798 Heritage train follows the route taken by the
North Cork Militia to Oulart Hill and
starts at The Trading Post Park in Wexford. Remember 1798, is a 10km walk to the summit of Oulart Hill where the first
major battle of the insurrection of 1798 took place.
The walk has developed along the only remaining section of what was the old
Dublin to Wexford stage coach
road. The route has been recently planted by volunteers with Irish native
hardwood donated by Coilte. Stone markers are being erected at places of
interest along the way. The history of the area is being recorded and a
local historian is available to give guided tours in this area of
Wexford. For the very fit or those on bicycles you can continue on from
Oulart Hill to The Fr Murphy centre in Boolavogue, then to Ferns
Castle, into Enniscorthy stopping off at Vinegar Hill, The 1798
Heritage centre and the County Museum in Enniscorthy Castle.

| The Tourist's Prayer
Heavenly Father look down on us your humble, obedient tourists, who are
doomed to travel this earth taking photographs, mailing postcards, buying
souvenirs, and walking around in drip-free underwear.
We beseech you Lord to see that our planes are not delayed, our luggage is
not lost & overweight baggage goes unnoticed.
Give us this day your divine guidance in our selection of Caravan
Parks in Ireland
We pray that the toilets work and the telephone operators speak our tongue,
that there are no emails from our children which would cause us to cancel
the rest of our trip.
Lead us to good inexpensive restaurants where the wine is included in the
price of the meal and local taxes are not added on later.
Give us the wisdom to tip correctly in currencies we do not understand. Make
the natives appreciate us for the loving people we are, and not for what
they can extract from our purses.
Grant us the strength to visit museums, the cathedrals, the palaces, and if
we skip an important monument to take a nap after lunch, please have mercy
on us as our flesh is weak.
Dear God please protect our wives from "bargains" they don't need, can't
afford, and can't fit into their suitcases anyway. Lead them not into
temptation, for they know not what they do.
Almighty Father, keep our husbands from looking at foreign women and
comparing them to the vintage domestic model. Save them from making complete
fools of themselves in nightclubs. Above all, do NOT forgive them their
trespasses for they know exactly what they do. And worse, enjoy it.
When our journey is over. grant us the persistence to find someone who will
watch our home movies and listen to our stories, so our lives as tourists
will not have been in vain.
This we ask you in the name of Conrad Hilton, Thomas Cook, American Express,
Visa, & Mastercard.
Amen. |
