Last day in Galway

Today was the last the way we spent in Galway. It was the only the day of the week we had enough time to explore the city on our own, go shopping, and experience real Irish food and even though we already stayed in the city for nearly a week, the feeling of fascination, and wonder for the city didn't go away, and we all were eager to learn more about the city and its wonderful history, the only problem with this was that we had to be home at 5 o'clock, and then go the Greyhound Race, or spend our evening whichever way we wanted, which for most of us consisted of packing our luggage and going to bed early, but some of us didn't take into account how exhausting the journey back to Austria would, be and so they hardly got any sleep.

In the evening some of us went to the Greyhound Race, in the Galway Stadium, but most of us didn't want to go, because they either thought that it would be really boring, or that animal abuse was involved in the races. Sadly, I didn't experience the race in first hand, but two of our classmates did go and see the race, and so they did tell our class everything we need to know about it. They thought that the race wasn't that interesting, because there were long breaks between each round, and each race only took a few seconds, but while the dogs were racing it was really exciting.
