Technically, the location of our stay is in Spiddal, even though our program is called "Galway." Spiddal is about a 25 minute walk from the park lodge hotel and can either be a wonderful short little walk or the longest most miserable walk ever! For instance, on Monday night a group of us walked to Spiddal in the POURING rain! It felt like the walk that never ended! Last night however, we walked to Spiddal with our usual group; the boys from cottage 3 or "the pride lands" and us girls from cottage 5 which we call ourselves "Atlantica." It was such a nice walk, the sun was shining and it was the perfect night! When we got to Spiddal we went to this little Italian restaurant, however we didnt look at the prices before we went in and ended up getting up and leaving right when we looked at a menu! We then went to the pub "The Tobber" because they had a pizza special that night. The cute little old bartender said that the pizzas weren't any good, but if we went down the street to the pizza parlor, then we could bring our pizzas back and eat them at the pub if we ordered a drink. We went to the pizza parlor, ordered our pizza and then came back to the Tobber and ate our pizza over a pint :) Having actual real food tasted sooo good as we have made buttered noodles for the past week and a half. After dinner, we went to Supermac's which is Irelands version of McDonalds and got icecream and ate it while we walked back along the beach. Last night was probably one of my favorite nights here in Ireland thus far as it was so relaxed and we had a great time! Just thought I would share that with you all. This weekend we go to Limerick on an excursion and will have lots more to share! Miss everybody at home, but I am having a GREAT time!!!
Love, H
