Galway

For as much as we walked around this awesome city during our 4-day stay, I didn't take many pictures. But here's a few--it's a cosmopolitan city with a small town feel. So many nationalities are represented here, primarily European. Those lucky EU citizens can move freely and work in other countries similar to how we have the ability to move from state to state.

The main gathering place in the city is Kennedy Park, more commonly known as Eyre Square. JFK spoke here on June 29, 1963. He traveled to the island of his ancestry and Galway was one of his stops, though his mother's ancestors were from Co. Limerick and his father's from Co. Wexford.


Eyre Square was beautiful.
John made friends with a great gal named Dorthy Richardson while working out in California this year--we couldn't resist snapping a picture of this bar for her and her family.
Galway is known as the City of the Tribes--these flags represent the founding family tribes.


Our B&B wasn't far from the popular Salt Hill section of Galway. We loved walking along the "wall" and enjoyed some great breakfast & coffee at Coco Cafe there.
The Galway Museum. We didn't make it in, but still a cool sight even from the outside.
