Good old Galway...

Our group spent the last two days sight-seeing out of Galway, on the west coast of Ireland. We spent a day bus touring towards the Cliffs of Moher, with lots of great stops along the way, including a short hike and many, many great stories about The Fairies. The Cliffs were gorgeous, but it was freezing cold!! It's definitely October over here in Ireland... lots of chilly winds blowing off the Atlantic. Today's weather was much better, but still a bit cold. We took a ferry out the the Aran Islands off the coast and explored all day.
I had a short stint of homesickness last night, and I'm getting quite tired of sleeping in the same room with seven other girls... and unfortunately, I am sick... it had to happen sometime. Everyone on the trip has had a cold at one point or another, but I've been healthy all the way up until this week... bummer.
Anyway, I'm off to an early bed time, I need to get rid of this cold ASAP.
Lots of love,
Giselle
