July 7, 2009

Well.....I almost killed mom but boy oh boy is Galway a nice city to wander around in when the sun is shining!!

After another great breakfast (I could get used to having someone serve me b'fast every day!!) we donned our rain jackets (we're learning....) and set off for the centre of town where there is a pedestrian zone that runs for several blocks. There are musicians on every corner, some great shops, some tasty looking eating spots, and even a pub or two.

We passed the pub that Rob and I closed down last night - yep...we shut her down! We shopped along the way and Rob even fed some of the swans and other water fowl that live along the waterways.

Galway Bay is super pretty when the sun is shining and the city is perfectly situated to make the most of the views.

Tonight we're off to have dinner and to see a show....it's a live performance that includes irish dance, singing, and music. We're all looking forward to it.

We've just discovered that Jenna has nothing to wear for the wedding so tomorrow we'll be shopping for something conservative (just like the rest of her clothes LOL). Given the prices here....she'll have to extend her student loans to be able to make the necessary purchase. We've looked through her pack and found that what she thought she could wear is much too revealing (she did her shopping in an adult section of Paris on her Contiki tour) so......it's time for her to go shopping with Grandma.

Enough for now.... time for us to hit the road again....

till next time,
L & L
