It is now early morning in Galway Ireland. Kristy & I are eating our Traditional Irish Breakfast with Irish coffee at our Cute little Bed and Breakfast in Galway Ireland!

This place is so cute! The staff is absolutely charming, the room clean, and homey and the food delicious.

Yesterday we traveled from Dublin to Galway. We started off with a bit of a bump in our Itinerary when the Paddywagin offices overbooked our tour. We felt bad for our VERY Irish tour Guide, Shaun. We finally got to our larger Bus after picking it up at an airport Lot and we were on our way about 2 hours late. Our spurts quickly lifted though as our co-travelers are many high school-College girls with good humor and excited personalities.

Sean played Traditional Irish music and sang to us a bit explaining the countryside as we drive along. We slept a lot on the bus! We stopes many times for photo spots of green hills, sheep, horses, lakes, and castles! There were castle ruins and a cute little Abbey at a small town named Cog. It was s bit rushed the whole time but defiantly fun! The next Irish castle we ate some lunch (more soup for me! Yum!) and grabbed some homemade ice cream, and pet some Donkeys, before hoping on the bus once again!

We traveled To Galway & woke up with the Atlantic Ocean through our windows! Galway is absolutely breathtaking! It has the cozy feel of Solvang CA. We arrived at our B&B Arons House! Our room was clean with our own bathroom and cute little traditional keys to lock up. We set on foot to find the Tavern our tour guide had suggested and wandered through the city shopping.

The tavern was cute and we found our group. Kristy had her first legal Drink! Yay! They didn’t even ask for ID?! We both had some flavored Hard Cider, pizza, garlic bread, and Irish apple Pie! Yum! We took our time walking back, stopping to see the ocean and taking in the city! I even braved the public toilets that you pay 20pence for and it is all automated! It was defiantly an experience!

We had a good nights rest and a good breakfast! We are now packed and ready waiting for our bus to take us to Kilarney!

So it’s been a crazy day or few days, I’m not sure which? Amazing flight from LA but long stay in london due to the airport workers being on strike, and delayed planes!

It was a super big relief that the TSA agents had s sense of humor knew what harry potter was & didn’t confiscate our wands! Yay! Although we must admit London’s security was way stricter than LAX? Weird.

But were finally here in Dublin! Paddwagon Tours starts tomorrow! Found this cute little pub next door and I finally got to have my favorite dish in the world! REAL potato leak soup in Ireland! It almost completed me lol!

5:30am start in the morning! Off to bed!
