On To Galway

Galway is a completely charming town about two and a half hours west of Dublin, right on the Atlantic coast. It's medieval core is intact and and chock full of shops restaurants and most of all pubs. There's a friendly, clean hostel called The Barnacle where I spent two nights, made some friends, hung out, ate some good food, and drank Guinness. lots of fun, traditional Irish music everywhere. Highly recommended!
