Update on our plans

Kathleen and I (along with Dan and Gretchen) just booked a couple of rooms in Longford, also at the Longford Arms for Aug 2 - Aug 4.
It would be great to get a day in at the Galway races before we head out to Longford- it's going to be tight but I think we can get a few races in. We'll be stopping in Galway on Sat. Aug 2nd coming from the Aran Islands. The first race on that day is at 2:15PM, general admission is 20 euros per adult (I thought the 1$ admission to the Aqueduct out in Queens was a little steep). I believe the last bus out of Galway to Longford departs at 4:25PM (based on the June timetable). That means we have 3 or 4 races to win our admission fees back.
Sounds like a decent plan to me.
