Description

I spent a couple of weeks in Galway, Ireland in mid January of 2010. And I quickly fell in love with this beautiful city on the west coast of Ireland. There was something about it, a combination of friendly people and a long history, and some ineffable quality that made me want to return.

Despite being there weeks after Christmas, the city was still festooned with holiday decor. I thought at first it was simply that they were waiting for the Epiphany to take them down, but I finally decided that our practice in the US of taking down decorations fairly promptly was not the norm there.

And I have to say, I kind of like it, that holiday cheer lasting longer, especially in the short days and long nights of winter. It just seems right, you know?
