The next day we spent wandering around the city. Lots of shopping, pubs, walking malls, street performers and other things to see. Haley got earrings decorated with Connemara Marble, and we stopped in a shop to see the world's smallest claddagh ring! We also saw a street performer playing a harp! We hung out for several hours on Sunday as we went straight from Galway to Haley's soccer practice in Castlebar. The city is within 35 minutes of Galway.
Perhaps what is most striking of our visit to Galway is all the things we didn't see! The area has a lot to offer. We will have to go back to see the Aran Islands and pick up handmade wool sweaters, and we will need to visit the Connemara Marble Factory and see the ponies! Also more castles, more coastlines and beaches.....
