I read a post on my brothers website the other day entitled "Helen can i book my bed now!" I wasn't sure what was so important but as i read on i was surprised to hear that the volvo ocean race had asked Galway to be a european stopover destination for the race in 2008-2009. 8 million euro later and i found out today that it is going to happen! I cant believe i hadn't heard about it before now! It will mean so much for Galway as a city and Ireland in general. Personally i cant wait to see my brother and sister in law and a few boats aswell!
