Galway is the largest city in Ireland�s Connacht province. It grew around a fortification that was built here in 1124. Today, the city is home to historic buildings, churches, city gates and cemeteries #Galway #Ireland https://backpackandsnorkel.com/Ireland/Day10/#5i101

Lynch�s Castle is a medieval fortified house that was built by the Lynch family, who was one of the 14 Tribes of Galway. It has embellished carved windows, gargoyles, ornamental moldings, and cornices. #Galway #Ireland https://backpackandsnorkel.com/Ireland/Day10/#5i1017

The Swan Whisperer of Galway

If you’ve ever wandered down to the Claddagh in Galway, you’ll know the swans are less “graceful wild creatures” and more “assertive locals who know exactly when the bread’s coming out.”

That’s what happened on this day in 2005 when we visited and saw a young woman feeding those swans. Other birds wanted crumbs of bread too! Now we know that bread is not an ideal food for birds. Green vegetables are better for them.

Screebe Fishing Hut at Sunset

My first time visiting the famous fishing hut at Screebe in Connemara was last night, when we were blessed with an evening without even a breeze to disturb the water.

Unfortunately, there was an excess of low cloud, with a cloud bank at the horizon that swallowed the sun at the horizon behind the house, but by moving around we caught a break and saw a lovely yellow glow in the distance.

An tOileán Iarthach. Beautiful island off the coast of Connemara. The most scenic place you could watch a Galway hookers boat race.
