I stayed in Bray twice in 1982, at a B&B run by a lovely elderly lady. When I told her my great-grandparents were Irish from Cork, she suddenly made me feel like family, even had scones and tea with her in her private sitting room while watching the BBC news with her. She and I actually corresponded a few times after I had returned to New York. I did a lot of hiking about the town and up into the Wicklow Mountains which I found breathtaking. I also attended Mass and really, just made myself at home with my lovely host. I was a young guy in my twenties and it was a wonderful trip. Perhaps one day I'll make the trip again. Thanks for the video, enjoyed it too.
