LANGUAGE TRIP 1st BATXILLERAT (4): OUR LAST DAY IN GALWAY


 In our last day in Galway, we learned some more things about this nice city, thanks to a guided historical tour through its most significant places: Eyre Square, Latin Quarter, Spanish Arch, the river Corib, and Salthill.








 We also discovered the simbology of the Claddagh Rings, and the story told around them.
 A statue of Oscar Wilde sitting in a bank in the Shop Street brought us to remember that Ireland is a country of poets and writers, like Samuel Beckett or James Joyce, among many others.










By visiting the river, the docks, and the Spanish Arch, we learned how important was the trade with Spanish and Italian ships for the Irish economy during de 14th and 15th century.




























 
 Finally, we realized that music is everywhere in Ireland, in every single corner.


The Irish: very cheerful and friendly people!
