Good morning folks...its before 9am on Thursday...I received a wake up call even though I did not order one, and thus I am already more productive than I intended for my free day in Galway.
Overcast and cool here in Galway right now. Most people are going shopping for gifts and doing some laundry because they are not good at packing.
There are a lot of choir tour groups that come to Ireland to sing.
Our tour guide Noel had breakfast with me this morning, and I was talking to him about Irish traditions, and he told me they dont have an equivalance of 'thanksgiving' or 'independence day.' Unbelieveable....they are really missing out.
so tomorrow we will go south down the west coast towards shannon. tomorrow night is overnight in shannon and we have to be at the airport at 6am (ireland time) Saturday. I think we are expected back in High Point at like 6pm (US time) with all the time changes factored in. This is very much dependent on ash in the sky and flight delays, etc.
We have been getting better and better value for the US dollar eveer since we have arrived. I think some people traded yesterday at 1.22 dollars a euro, which is great compared to the 1.32 it was when we landed last week.
Its hard to believe that we are already making those preparations to return.
But, a fun day in Galway first. Im off to explore, good day to you all, my loyal readers.
