Galway Weekend
Yesterday I turned in my first paper of the semester. Who knew you could write 3,000 words on the structure of conversation?
Today 9 friends and I took Bus Eireann for 5 hours to arrive at Galway, a city on Ireland's west coast. Travel literature I have read say Galway is the fastest growing city in Europe — I will research the matter further and report back with the whole story.
This evening we had dinner at a fantastic restaurant called Couch Potato where every meal is served in a potato. They have pizza potatoes, pasta potatoes, and others. I had the Hawaii 5-0 potato, stuffed with shredded ham, pineapple, peppers, and cheese.
In the next few days we are going to see the Cliffs of Moher and the Arran Islands: scenic Ireland at its best.
