waiting on me as I was hurredly trying to get to the bus stop for my
trek to Tralee. Good thing I hurried. Oh wait. No. I've been
sitting here waiting for a while. Relax, it's ok. I know you want to
make a phone call to the powers that be at Bus Eireann on my behalf
but sitting here has given me a chance to catch up on this.
The weather is perfect this morning. Quite breezy and probably in the
sixties and clear. Smells of salt air.
Last night was great. Watched my first hurling match even though
County Clare lost(yeah instead of Clare County) it was cool to see.
Hurling's a sport where the players dot get paid and they play for
their county. It's Huge with a capital h.....you know what i mean.
After the match we were treated to some traditional live Irish music.
Some of the more talented musicians I've seen in a long time. And
music here was not an afterthought. It was the focus of everyone in
the place. Quite a switch from the States.
After my almost first full day in Ireland I can say that the people
here are worth the trip. They really are as gracious and kind as
there reputation suggests.
