Hola!
So we've survived our first day in the people's republic of Cork and now there's nothing we can't do after skateboarding a pint of murphy's stout up patrick's hill! After 17 funny, excruciating, delerious minutes we reached the "official" top of the hill though there was some "motivational" talk along the way that led us to believe we'd be finished sooner....thanks Paddy :-D
So apparently Lance Armstrong will be cycling up the hill 3 times next week as part of some event, we'd like to see him skateboard a pint of Murphy's up it!!
We caught everything on video and will be able to publish when we find to means to do so! Hopefully soon!
We topped off our first day by playing a set down the local Shelbourne Bar on McCurtain St. We were warmly welcomed with a free drink, just the thing we need to perk up our confidence and energy to blast out a few tunes...and so we did! Everyone seemed to enjoy it and we were rewarded with another round of drinks!
The night went on and eventually led to us playing an encore of 4 songs for late arrivers and in return for 'spin' to Killarney today. So now we're departing Sheila's Hostel, in which we spent a wonderful time, and heading into the kingdom to Neptunes where another great challenging day awaits us! Cullum (sp?!) has kindly offered to drive us there to show that irish people are still decent enough to do a 'turn'! (just getting used to the southern lingo now! :-D)
hasta luego amigos!!!
and thanks to everyone for all the support here in Cork!!
