We’re up at 3am. We think. Our hotel doesn’t have a clock in it. We lay in our separate twin beds and chat finally I call the front desk and ask the time, 6:10am. Breakfast isn’t until 7:30am. Waiting, waiting, waiting. Nice nap. On the first full day in Ireland itinerary – Galway. Galway gets big thumbs down from Holly and Christy. That place is like Portland, no fucking street signs anywhere so you just drive and drive and drive and you can’t get off the loop. We went ended up at the wrong Abbey so we looked around and then left and decided to head up far west to Sligo to see a castle, Parkes Castle to be exact and it is lovely. We also found an old church in ruins with a great graveyard attached, the oldest grave was in the 1600’s I wish we brought flowers to lay on it, you know he’s not getting any visitors and it would have been nice to give his resting spot some love.
