Day five - What we did on our way to Galway

Hi all
Well it was a funny night with lots of bad jokes told by Kyra and I to Alison and Freddy- the others and Mark could here us laughing and were not so impressed with the keeping them awake. Ahh when it is a bad funny joke what else can you do but laugh.

Crap just realised I have downloaded this photo and I don't know where it is- Sorry but it looks pretty right. We voted not to do a 2 hour hike- pouring rain and hail were on the menu for today's weather.

St Patrick- he was Welsh and was kidnapped and forced into slavery. He became a christian at 16 and began to preach to all. Famous for his miracle of expelling all snakes from Ireland. He also has the fright to sit at the gates of heaven and judge all Irish on their entry instead of St Peter.

Ok 2 things- this is on the bus need to let you see that we have other clothing aside from our coats. 2nd and this is kind of sad, the scarf was bought in Germany and it has now found a new home after it got left behind at the pub after dinner in the evening. Colour looks great on you Alison- you will always have this photo to remind you of it.

Mark stopped the bus and challenged the boys to catch one of the roaming sheep. This is Lyndon chasing it. Yes the NZ jokes are being made- the sheep got away.

Ahhh lets return to the Quiet Man. There is a little cottage where they have the manikins  of the four main characters. It is very run down. But Mark felt that we deserved to see it given how much we went on about it last night and all day today. This is Freddy with the John Wayne manikins 



Quiet Man again- we get to |Galway and there on the wall near the hostel is a painting on the wall from the movie- but for some reason the painting depicts them under water- absolutely no idea why


Well the Quiet Man is big in this part, as you can tell from all the photo opportunities we had. Really not anything else you can say about this.
Miss you all from here
Karen & Alison
