Next Stop!  Galway!

Sunday morning we left Murphy’s B & B in Dingle and started the 3.5 hour drive from Dingle to Galway.

On our way out of town, we stopped at this modern super market for snacks for the trip.  

We made another stop for gas, plugged in the GPS and headed for the roadway that would take us to Galway.  For navigation, Larry loads an old phone with maps before we leave home using an app called “Here Wego”.  This app gives us off-line navigation without a data connection and is available for both iPhone and Android.  Larry downloads specific maps for each country we are visiting before we leave home.  This photo shows the set-up.

We made good time and arrived in Galway with plenty of time to walk around town.  It’s the fourth largest city in Ireland and busier than we expected it to be on a Sunday afternoon.  This is one of the major shopping streets.

Here, trees are just beginning to show signs of fall color.

On our way around town, we stopped to see the Galway Cathedral–a massive structure built in 1965.

Our final stop was for dinner at An Pucan where we watched bartenders pour perfectly proper glasses of Guinness!  Cheers!
