Bus Blunder

 

I decided to walk to town today. Here's a little snapshot of the walk there.

I stopped along the way to admire and play my uke.

 

 

 

Galway City!

I found the really authentic part of town, which frankly I'm not sure how I missed before because it is awesome and people are playing music and there are pubs everywhere, it's rad. I also thought I had finally mastered the bus system, there are two that come back toward my house, the 402 and 409. So, today I felt confident enough to get on the 402 without asking anyone to be sure. Whoops... Turns out there are TWO 402's. Like, they couldn't possibly choose any other number. So, I went all the way through the bus route and the driver said "that was the last stop... Where are you trying to go?" And I said "Well, it would appear I'm on the wrong bus. I need to get to GMIT." A round of applause for the bus driver who brought me back into town today (when he wasn't headed to town) and told me what bus to get on. The Irish are good people.

All this on a Thursday before college starts... I can't imagine weekends during the schoolyear!
 

"Brownes Doorway" preserved from a merchant's home built in the early 17th century. It's right in the town square.
