The Republic of Ireland

Moving south! Here are the next lot of pics from Galway and Dublin. 2 lovely Irish cities that we really enjoyed. The music was particularly good in both places, and we spent many an hour sitting in pubs, enjoying a guinness or Irish coffee while listening to live musicians jamming away in the corners. Good times! Also good were the international buskers in the streets, entertaining crowds with anything from funky drum beats to traditional jigs. Such lively cities! The bus rides in between the cities (and Northern Ireland) were sooooo green! Almost suffocating!! So definitely living up to the name "The Emerald Isle". Enjoy the pics!

Our favourite pub in Galway.

Guiness Galore!!!

Banging out all the old Irish favourites...the whole pub was singing along!

Being silly in the hostel.

These guys rocked until the cops kicked them out. Boo!

Famous Irish folk.
