On to Galway

Today we moved out of our host families' homes and drove to Galway, which is on the west-coast of Ireland.

For this we met at half past 9 at Bayside Station and took the Dart 8 minutes later to Dublin. There we had about one hour time till the bus arrived. After about four hours on the bus with a short break of about 10 minutes we all were happy to get out of it. We took our backpacks and went to the hostel. After a short walk we arrived there at 3 o’clock pm and checked in. Our rooms were small, but it was enough place for everybody and we had our own bathroom.

At half past 5pm some of us went to the supermarket to buy something to eat. After that we began to cook. We made Zucchini soup, pasta with a tomato-olive sauce and salad. After our dinner we decided to go out. We chose a pub with live music. Although the band was very good some of us went home after less than two hours, because we were so tired from our journey.
