BTW, on Friday of that week we went to Mass at the Cathedral in Galway. The Mass was in Gaelic. I couldn’t even identify the Our Father, which I usually can in foreign languages — that’s how different Gaelic is to American ears! LOL. The President of Ireland led the procession of dignatories. And the offertory consisted of some equipment for the NY Firefighters from the Irish people. The entire country was shut down that Friday, except for necessities such as a few pharmacies. You couldn’t get fed, or a drink at a pub, unless you were a tourist already booked at a hotel. THe Irish populace had to eat and drink at home.

BTW, the Galway Cathedral is beautiful — all decorated with mosaic pictures in different colored stone from every county in Ireland. I don’t think there was any stained glass — just stone pictures which made it look like you were viewing them through a mist because the colors were so soft.
