Flour Power

After 2h30m in an airplane to cross more than 1600Km and another 3h40m to cross the 200Km that separate Dublin from Galway (hooray for Irish buses!), I finally arrived at my destination. And what’s the best way to celebrate the fact that I arrived safe besides the fact that these folks drive on the wrong side of the road? With a pint of Guinness, of course.

But only after dinner! Never have a drink on an empty stomach…

Dinner was at the Charcoal Grill, a kebab place that I’ll probably be visiting a lot in the next few months, since it’s one of the few places that stays open until late (perfect for a snack on the way back home). The meal was very nice, but I have the feeling I missed something.

After dinner, the tasting of a proper Guinness, in a proper Irish pub, in Ireland, took place in The Dáil Bar. And I have to say this will be the first of many… Even though it might take a while to get used to the price… €4.20…

That was the first day. Nothing too exciting, because I was a bit tired from the trip. There will be plenty of time to explore Galway’s nightlife in the next few months. I could sense some… let’s say… potential for lots of fun…
