The Biddies Take Over Galway

I woke up early the day after beer olympics to go food shopping so that I could get supplies to make homemade macaroni and cheese. Once I got back and forced the Biddies to wake up (everyone but Liz because she wakes up early every morning) we decided to spend the day walking around Galway. We started at one end of Shoppe Street and walked to the end, stopping in shops along the way. We did a lot of shipping and they bought a lot of souvenirs. One of the stores we went to was called Thomas Dillon Shop, which is a jewelry store. This jewelry store is the original maker of the Claddagh ring. I already had a ring (my dad bought me one years ago when he went to Ireland with Mr. Bowman) but I wanted something from this store. I decided to buy a bracelet that had the Claddagh symbol on it. The bracelet is gorgeous.

Lindsay is a coordinator of the Boston College Student Admissions Program. One of the ideas she had for the spring was to make a bulletin board. At the end of fall semester all of the SAP volunteers that were going abroad were given a SAP shirt. Lindsay decided to decorate the bulletin board with pictures of juniors who are abroad wearing their shirts. We all decided to wear our shirts out and took a picture underneath the Spanish Arch. People probably thought that we were weird wearing the same shirts but we did not care.

After a long day of shopping and walking, everyone was hungry so I brought them to Coach Potatas. They LOVED it. I got the Italiano Potatoe which had chicken, cheese, and tomato sauce in it. It was beyond delicious. We all ordered beers with our meals.

After lunch, Lindsay went to meet Haley with dinner and Liz, Christine, and I went back to my apartment. We hung out for a while and watched some television (Friends, of course). I made dinner for us and then we got ready to go out. We pregamed a little and then met Lindsay and Haley at the Front Door. It was so nice to hang out with everyone again. I had such a great time.
