New month, new city, new post

I finally made it Ireland. I mean, Dublin is of course in Ireland, but it's not the Ireland I remember, the one I've been missing. I think I've found it now though.

I left Dublin yesterday for Galway, arrived at about 5 PM, checked in, then immediately went on a pub crawl with a load of amazing friends I didn't realize I had, because that is what you do when you stay at a hostel. Anyway, how much do I love Galway? I have four words for you: Impromptu Riverdance Mosh Pit. When I got back to my room my ears were ringing, my head was spinning, and this morning came a bit harder and brighter than I would have liked, but it was totally worth it because that was the most amazing, bizarre, fun night out. And that was only day one. Dude. Today I wandered around scoping out help wanted signs and making calls to people about renting a room. Tonight more adventures - I've been invited to a Canada Day celebration. I didn't even know it was Canada Day, but why not? There will be poutine and beer and, presumably, Canadians. Sounds like fun.

(Why yes, I do suck at updating. I have more Dublin photos, hopefully I'll get them up in the next couple of days along with new ones from Galway.)

travel, the universe, ireland
