Galway is a college town. Lots of bars, lots of tourists, lots of kids 18 - 23. It wasn't really the place for us, but I can see it making a great base for checking out the surrounding areas. We checked into our hotel, grabbed lunch, then walked. And walked and walked and walked. We walked along the "Claddagh," and kept mostly to the coastal areas that most tourists were avoiding. It was invigorating and lovely, and we were so thoroughly exhausted when we got back to the hotel that we had some tea and just crashed. Plus, it was Sunday, so a lot of things weren't open. I think we even skipped dinner that night!
Main shopping drag in Galway
The River Corrib runs through Galway
Can you believe that these people were actually surprised when a bird flew into their car??
It was so rainy!
There were "Supermac's" all over the place, and they had a cheap and tasty breakfast for when we didn't want to waste a lot of time!
On the train again, and back to Dublin!
