We finally found a place to live - in Belfast. What accents there!

GALWAY AND SALTHILL. Galway is one of the most fascinating of Irish cities, gateway between the Old World and the New. St. Columbus prayed in St. Nicholas' Church before setting out on his voyage of discovery, and an early Mayor, James Lynch Fitzstephens, condemned and executed his own son near the old jail. The short River Corrib flows through Galway City to enter the Atlantic. Salthill, the seaside suburb, is one of the most fashionable and up-to-date resorts in Ireland.
