I visit Galway regularly especially in Summer when the town is so busy. I walked through Shop street etc yesterday.

In a Business perspective, bought my GoPro and Toshiba b10 camcorder there.

Bought some quality cloths from different small shops there as well, at reasonable price.
Almost forgot, there's a restaurant between the private and bus eireann bus station there, very very nice staff.
