Top 15 Things We Will NOT Miss

Here's the list of things we won't be missing when we leave Galway in September:

15. Dog poop everywhere on the sidewalks

14. Lack of organization and forward planning

13. No electricial outlets in bathrooms

12. Double beds (and two twins pushed together qualifying as a double)

11. Electric showers (and showers with only half a door)

10. Bathroom faucets with separate hot and cold taps (how fun it's been to fill the sink with hot and cold water every night in order to wash my face in warm water)

9. Clothes dryers without ventilation (no more emptying the bladder of my dryer every four loads)

8. Cost of living, in general (bottles of contact solutions costing 16€, drinks for 6€ a pop)

7. Mediocre food at a pub/restaurants

6. Lack of garbage disposals

5. Separating food trash from paper trash (because we have no garbage disposal)

4. Radiator heating

3. Paying our bills at the the Post Office

2. Timid Irish drivers (causing unneccessary traffic)

1. The weather (rainy, cool days all year long)
