Yes Galway is a great place - a curious mixture of ultra-ancient and extra-new. However this obsession with the word "craic" is boring me to death, as was the phrase "Celtic Tiger".

We were there in '06 and loved the place. The film festival, Eyre Square, great people, beautiful scenery; perfect.

Makes me miss home! You can take the girl out of Galway but you can't take Galway out of the girl.

They also left out 'perfect' & 'you're fine', both endearing little Irish uterrances.

Oh yes, Galway is perfection for me. We love the people and the scenery. We have watched the sun go down over Galway Bay and the moonlight reflect on it. Beautiful. Food is great too!

The Gaelic girls should feature Harry and Alfie and other young songwriters/singers. Alfie's great at step dancing too.

Great theater. ... And there really is nothing like the sun going down on Galway Bay. ... They left out Brilliant. ... The Gaelic Girls are fun, and they edit their videos very well, nice and brisk but we get the flavor.
