Galway


We have arrived in Galway!
After a short walk from the train station along the side of Eyre Park to Prospect Street, we made our way to our apartment. 
We were hungry!
So...
Out the door we went in search of the perfect place for an early dinner.



We wandered down this street. 



This street looked promising!



Brassiere on the Corner
We earned a fabulous dinner and we picked just the right place!



The east side of Eyre Park
The Tribes of Galway 
The fourteen flags represent the fourteen merchant families who dominated the political, commercial and social life of Galway in western Ireland between the mid-13th and the late-19th centuries. 
The tribes were merchant families who prospered  from trade with Continental Europe. They dominated Galway's municipal government during the medieval and early modern eras.



I am sure our dinner restaurant was much better than this one!
I'm not a fish lover but I could have enjoyed a little of that Irish Whiskey in my coffee!

One day everything looks serene and quite, and then you get to a busy place. You really did get to see it all. Lots of wet weather also...
