Galway Part III

Galway was a fun and colorful town.

Here is one of the old wooden fishing boats called hookers.
I did this one later in the afternoon after the hailstorm.

When I needed a little warmth I came back to the B&B we were staying in called the Ardawn House and sketched in the sitting room while I sipped some wine.


We had some very tasty lunches in Galway. 
Mussels with spicy chili sauce at McDonagh's Seafood were delicious!

  3. Love that sitting room! So charming! I am loving your Ireland pieces. I'm an Irish girl so I'm getting to see a bit of the country through your eyes.

  5. Now that looks like quite a fishing boat. You even sketched your mussels. That is something I have never tried but I bet they were delicious with a spicy sauce. So enjoyed catching up on your posts and seeing the sights of Galway.

  6. Great job on the boat. The sitting room looks very cozy, a good place to go after a hail storm. And the mussels look very tasty.
