Visiting with Family

This morning, my Aunt Kathy, Uncle Donny, and cousin Ally came to Ireland for vacation (and to visit me). We spent an enjoyable morning wandering the streets of Galway, though not many things were open for business while we were out...Ireland has a slow start on Sundays. We enjoyed breakfast in Galway Bakery Company and watched the raging river for a while. The Spanish Arch was delightful as always, though it became very cold, rainy, and windy.

We all took a little rest in the middle of the day, as is the custom for people who come for visits. We went to dinner at Busker Brownes and had delicious food. I think (hope) they enjoyed their first day in this beautiful city! Tomorrow I have class (starting my last week...yikes!) and they are going to do a day tour of the Connemara region and Kylemore Abbey. I hope they have fun!
