After Derry, we headed to Galway for the next two days. Because Ireland is Ireland, we had beautiful weather on our bus ride from Derry to Galway while we were stuck on the bus. Then when we are taking a ferry to Inis Mor the next day, the weather is pretty terrible and Sam and I almost get sea sick. The experience was just more authentic that way. Inis Mor is the largest of the Aran Islands and is gorgeous! We took a mini bus tour which took us to the fort, the seven churches, and the most western side of the island.
Me about to board the shakiest ferry ride of my life.

Most western part of the island and Europe at one point
The next day we explored Galway a bit. Lynch’s castle is a bit of a let down, but there is an excellent museum near the Spanish Arch and St. Nicholas’s Cathedral is gorgeous. There is a picture of Jesus and JFK having a cup tea hanging in the cathedral, which I think is great. After exploring the Spanish Quarter a bit, it was time to head to our bus to Dublin.
