  • Foynes is located on the Shannon estuary in County Limerick in the southwest of Ireland. This is the location of the Foynes Flying Boat Museum. Between 1937 and 1945, the Shannon estuary at Foynes was used as a flying boat departues, and arrivals hub, for air traffic going back and forth across the Atlantic Ocean.
    The most famous of the flying boats to frequent Foynes was the Yankee Clipper. A replica of this amazing flying machine can be viewed at the museum. Well worth a visit. Lots of interesting information.

    👋Hi there Don,
    Here's hoping this msg finds you well.
    Another wonderful video shared, as always.
    I love how you always share interesting historical stories with your viewers & I'm sad to see that not too many have watched & commented here, but I hope they will very soon.
    In reference to Barack Obama, he is 6ft 1" as recorded & his wife Michelle is 5ft 11". They're both tall & Michelle is very tall for a woman.
    I remember seeing that famous image of both Barack & Michelle standing next to Queen Elizabeth & she appeared so small next to their tall frames. They were towering over her! lol
    My family, friends & I are big fans of Barack Obama & his lovely wife Michelle. A couple who carry themselves very well & who possess much wisdom, much respect & great integrity, something we don't see much of in today's world & I know of another top guy too.....Don!! lol
    It's always great to see you travelling around beautiful Ireland & sharing stories with us.
    Until your next video, here's wishing you well.
    Cheers✌

    Oh & I should add, that calling that shopping mall after the great ex US President & gentleman, Barack Obama, is very fitting & very well deserved indeed!!
