Norway, Ireland, 26 June - 02 July 2006

For the last week of my pretty pretty long vacation, I travelled to Norway (Oslo) and Ireland (Galway, Letterfrack, Dublin), Norway (Oslo) again and back.

The guy in a music store told us that a monkey had saved a baby and that seemed to be a long while ago. The sculpture of the monkey holding the baby is above the entrance of a church.

 Guiness Time at the Fox's Bar, next to the Galway Hostel. We went to none.

 Reuben and Wendy. We didn't drive a lot but this place looked like the perfect place to make a break. And it was.

Break

 Chaals, Reuben and Wendy. We left Galway to go further West and slightly North, not sure where exactly. On the road we saw a nice park and stopped for a while.

 We stopped in Kylemore for lunch and while waiting for food, Wendy sat at the piano, played and sang.

 A very peculiar and delightful boy; he's fourteen and his bowler hat reminds me so much of clockwork orange.

 Yes, yes, it's a filthy habit. Plus, it's against the law!
