St Mary's Dominican Church Claddagh Galway and an actual Prie Dieu

I was walking around Galway and I popped into 

St. Mary's Dominican Church in the Claddagh

I knew it was there because of the Knights of St Columbanus Camino last year

but, I hadn't looked inside.

Here are some pics

(you know how to zoom in, don't you?)

Just wow, isn't that amazing..

(not to mention all the cute little creatures)

Another shot with the cute little creatures in focus, the barrier blocks the photo a bit

Then there is an old fashioned confession box, but the Dominicans call it the 

Sacrament of Reconciliation 

One side says 'Kneeler' I assume that means the confessor

The other side says 'seat'

And last, but not least, inside the door an ACTUAL Prie-Dieu (Prayer Desk)

The Prie-Dieu area

There was a lot more, but I didn't want to appear like a tourist or something, maybe another day...
