Ok, the title is from the song "Girl Galyway" stolen, albeit slightly altered. But it is true, Galway's great. But more on that later. Since I have not written two weeks, I have to go back a course for the first time a bit: In the period in which I have not written, I was at the doctor twice. (The first time, more or less a false diagnosis, the second time my beloved angina, which I visited once again). These two doctor visits to Polish doctors in my area have cost me about € 200, I get replaced, but fortunately. By the way, about German Dublin: When my doctor asked me where I come from because, Sven is not a British or Polish name (I will explain my name, always with the sentence "As only seven without the first e") and I told her that I was from Germany, she started broken, but good German to talk to me ... Incidentally, the name Wasserthal in English is really impractical. But, since I had to learn to work anyway more or less the military alphabet in English as in German: Whiskey Echo Sierra Sierra Alfa Romeo Tango Hotel Alfa Lima. But only at the margins.
Last Friday, I then Niki and Luci picked up from the airport. The weekend we spent more or less with celebrations and a little sightseeing. Monday, however, are We drove for three days to Galway. Galway is about two and a half hours and you take the bus once completely around the island from the east to the west coast. Buses are way better cars here because the rail network is not developed great and the buses cost and often. Locally we were in a really cheap hostel located right in the center. Galway has a population of about 75,000 inhabitants and is the third largest city in Ireland. The city center is really nice and once one is there, you should also get out a little confidence, because it is the landscape has to offer in this corner lot. So we can lead us on our second day in Galway, the Aran Islands visit, which are full of walls from the Celtic period to which I have found on the universal source of knowledge of our time on Wikipedia, the following statement:
"The Aran Islands are of small-scale gardens shaped, surrounded by stone walls. These gardens were on the previously barren rock islands created in arduous work. This was stranded kelp and sand spread on the floor. was through the walls prevents the extracted soil from the next rain or storm washed away or blown away was.
The walls can be admired in these photos:
On the second evening we have with other "swaps" (term for people who work and travel ) make a hit in Lokalbar. There were three German, one from the states and twenty Canadians. Canadians seem to have a special connection to Ireland, presumably because their families either come from Holland, France, Ireland or Scotland. In addition, Canadians are generally more active than people traveling from the States. Wednesday, we moved back and Thursday I had visits from angina, which has kept me around all day in bed. But thanks to the expert handling of my Polish doctor I was Friday on his feet again and so we have to Corinne the "Dandelion", a club in the city center paid a visit. On Saturday, we have Jo's Burger paid a visit, the best burger place in Ireland. And we all agree, a better burger had no one of us.
Now it is Sunday and tomorrow it goes back to my routine. I wish you a nice week and thaw to Germany!
Oh, and here finally:
