Galway

Galway was quite lovely, but we were only there for one night so didn't have much time to enjoy it. For once, Jim can say his name without having to spell it. There are Flahertys everywhere. We tracked down the castle where the Flahertys lived for over 300 years. Aughnanure Castle is now looked after by the state, so we had a look through, and read all about the history of those barbaric Flahertys untill they were ousted in the 1600s. Would have been very grand in its time and was in a beautiful setting. Amazing to have all that information recorded.
