Pilgrimage in Kildare!

On Tuesday we ventured out to Kildare to go on a pilgrimage to the areas associated with St. Brigid. This was such a great trip, we started off in Kildare town, where we were shown a video all about the history of the town and St Brigid. We then set off walking towards St Brigid's cathedral, where we were shown around the church, it was so big! And really beautiful and ornate, the only downside was that it was really cold.
        Then we set off towards a tower, and the place where Brigid used to light fires to let everyone know it was a friendly place and that they were welcome, and we also got to see Brigids kitchen. It was really interesting and made everything seem so much more real. We then got to have a look in Kildare Village, it was great to have a look around the shops and get a cup of tea in starbucks :)
      After that, we set off on a long walk towards St Brigids well. For me this was the best part of the trip, we got to say a prayer around the well, and bless ourselves with holy water, it was really nice.
Thats it really :)
