Volvo Ocean Race to Galway 2012

Galway is the finish port for the 2011-12 edition of the Volvo Ocean Race.
I am not a sailor but if the craic (& weather) is as good as last time, it will be fantastic.

Good news. Was at the event last year & there was a great buzz about the town, weather undoubtly helped!
Organizers appeared to have done an excellent job, hopefully they can repeat it.
There was talk about redeveloping the port as a marina, wonder if anything will happen there?

Just watch the price of the hotel rooms go CRAZY !!!!!!!

But great to see. It will be a great time to be in town.
