Go Get 'Em, Tigers!

I had a nice walk around town this morning/afternoon. It was the first chance I got to get over into the heart of the city centre shopping and entertainment district. What a great town. All the roads in the middle of town are pedestrian for the bulk of the day, making it a great area to just walk around, shop, eat and people watch. And today ended up being the first really nice day since the day I arrived in town, too, which helped! Of course, I didn't bring my camera with me again, which is a shame, but there will be other chances.

Walking down Quay Street, I spotted a busker (street musician) wearing a cap with a familiar olde English 'D' and 'Tigers' in script across the top. Later, on my way back to the house, I saw another guy with a Tigers cap! So not including the disqualified Yankees, that puts the Tigs in first place in the Great American Sports Teams Licensed Gear Race! I guess being the AL pays off, eh! And good to see the boys have climbed back into second in the AL Central, too.

By the way, Last night I went out to the Crane Bar with Conal to see The Mulcahy's, a family musical act. I can honestly say I've never seen a more attractive uilleann piper!

There probably won't be any updates tomorrow as I'm supposed to go back down to Ennis to meet up with Bill and collect the rest of my stuff. But by Friday, we should have broadband set up at the house.

Can't. Wait.
