Citylink sucks


Today was another exploration of Galway day and it was pretty darn fun. But first, we had to get breakfast. And that was pretty much a colossal failure. Mike had just gotten off of his ridiculous 9 hour shift (gotta be careful about that word “shift” here... it's slang for make out. ha. No joke people) and anyways, he wanted to get breakfast with all of us so we all got up at 10 am and were hoping for some great Irish breakfast and since it was so wicked expensive at the diner near us we settled for good ol Mickey Dees. Which was kinda weird because for breakfast they have like 5 items that you can get and that's about it. No joke. We Americans are seriously spoiled.

After breakfast, naptime. Then Patrick and I tried to buy some stupid cheap bus tickets and again, colossal failture to the extent that I was about to chuck my computer across the room in rage against Citylink, the worst company with the worst website. Basically I tried for like 2 hours or so to buy some cheap bus tickets but the website simply would not have it. And it you don't get the cheap one (1 euro) the tickets jump up to 17 euro. How absurd. Where's the middle ground people. No where. So after I successfully didn't buy cheap tickets, it was time to head out.



I walked around with Leigh a bit exploring the city as it was pretty darn bustling from the Little Havana festival going on and also there are a bunch of powerboat races happening this whole week. So Galway is completely jammed with people right now. And it's great. Very cool. We stopped by out dear friend Amy's house and I took a quick shut eye. Then it was downtown to check out all the nightly festivities.

This mainly consisted of visiting our homies T-Guard and Patrick as they worked. It was good fun. Although T-Guard was a little lame. But there are interesting people here. And some not so interesting ones who like to walk up to Leigh and I and talk about how he's a playwright and tell really awful stories for 30 minutes. Perfect. Either way, he was a nice enough guy and I guess it passes the time. We checked out some live music and then headed in for the night when Patty got off for the night.



Oh. Expect big things soon as Patty and I tune up our street performance act and make it big on the streets of Galway. You just wait. We're doin' it.
