Today we got up at 6:45 am and packed up at our hostel. We had to get up that early in order to make it to a bus that was leaving Dingle at 7:15 am. We rode to limerick and then transferred to another bus and then we rode to another town and transferred to yet another bus. We arrived in Galway at around 1:20 am and it started sleeting on us right as we got off the bus. We ran into the bus and train station and then it let up. We were going to try to couch surf with a couple in town but it kind of fell through so we found a hostel that was just right across from the bus station and checked in for ∉15 a night and stayed in a 14 room dorm. There was great free fast Internet there so we hung out for a bit. I went to the grocery store and bought some ready-made pizzas and cooked them up in the hostel kitchen for us. While they were cooking I met a guy named Jimmy who was from Australia who we ended up becoming friends with. After dinner we went out to a pub for a pint. We found a place called the Kings head and went in. There was a band playing live music there, which was nice. There was a group of guys that were really enjoying them selves and some how we got to talking with them. Some of them were from Glasgow and were in Galway on vacation. One of the Scotts asked where I was from and I said Kansas and he said Canada, before I could correct him he declared that he was buying all three of us shots. So we got some shots of Jameson Whiskey. After the shots he asked what part of Canada I was from and I said that I was actually from the states. He laughed and probably half joking said that he shouldn’t have bought the shots for us then. He was nice though and then preceded to talk to us about Dorothy, which seems to be the common response to us Kansans.
