Steph and Lindsay visit GALWAY!

Last Monday, October 12th, after a long hour in class, I walked to the Hotel Clybaun to anxiously await the arrival of Miss Stephanie Forbord and Miss Lindsay Cook. After a couple hours, they showed up!! It was so much fun to see familiar faces in Galway. I was so excited to have them here!! On Monday night, I brought them back to my apartment and we made pizza. I knew they would be tired after their long flight, so we just hung around for awhile and they then went back to their hotel.

On Tuesday I had classes again. I was planning on meeting them in the City Centre around 4 after class. When I met up with them I showed them a few cool souvenire shops and then we went to look at the Cathedral. It was shortly before mass so we only saw it for a second but it was something I thought they should most definately see while in Galway. I then brought them to the University and showed them the Quadrangle and the campus where I go to school. We then stopped and got ingredients and i made lasagna!! Silvia came over and so we all sat down and enjoyed my marvelous lasagna...I thought I did a pretty good job :) After we finished eating we booked tickets for Limerick and Dublin and then proceeded to the city centre to meet up with some people at King's Head.

King's Head is probably my favorite place in the centre to go. They have live music every night and Steph and Lindsay liked it too! It was fun because I had told a bunch of people we were going, so when we got there we met up with a bunch of my friends here. I was excited to see how many came!

Wednesday Steph and Lindsay explored Salthill while I again went to class. After class I met them at their hotel and we took a bus to the city centre to find something to eat. We ate at Finnegan's and had traditional Irish food. Steph and I both at fish and chips and it was the best fish I have ever had! Lindsay had beef shephard's pie which also looked quite amazing.

It was fun to have them in Galway and show them a little bit of what I do here.
