Day 10
We didn't do a ton today. It was quite sunny, but also very chilly. We walked around Wicklow a bit in the morning, just kind of looking around the town. We went to a nice cafe for lunch and had a very good tomato basil soup with homemade brown bread. Then we went and sat next to the ocean. There was a team of 3 420 sailboats that we watched for a while. We found some more sea glass also, and then went back to the hostel to figure out what we were going to do in Galway, our next destination.
Day 11
We woke up reall early this morning so we could take the 8am bus from Wicklow back to Dublin. We wanted to go to church in dublin this morning, but we arrived too late for the first service, and the next wasn't going to start for another hour and a half. So instead we took the 10am bus to Galway, but we will be going to St. Patricks church and the Christ Church next weekend when we are in Dublin, our last weekend!
The bus ride to Galway was 3 and a half hours long and so we didn't get here till 1:30pm. We were able to check into our hostel, the Galway City Hostel, when we got here, so we checked in and dropped off our bags and went about exploring the town. We found a great place for lunch called Food 4 Thought. We got a pretty good vegan shepards pie, and on Sunday's they give 3 free little salad samplers, so we got potato salad, broccoli salad, and pickled beets for free!!! Afterwards we walked around more and came upon a market stand where a guy was making fresh doughnuts in front of us and we got to watch him make them and then choose either chocolate, cinnamon, or sugar for the top, or plain. We choose one chocolate, one sugar, and one plain. Let me just say they were AMAZING!! Crispy on the outside, and soft on the inside, and warm! We hope to go back tomorrow too!
We are back at the hostel now after walking around a bunch more. Probably a salad and more peanutbutter sandwiches for dinner. Alright. Bye-bye.
