After my awesome 3 hr nap at Adam's, he took me up to meet his friends that live upstairs. Two girls, Allison and Kylie, and two guys, Scott and Rob, all from the States. We also met Tex and Jeff from Boston and Marlu, Tahan, Uli and Martina from Germany. Fun, fun bunch of folks. Scott made Aliison, Adam and I dinner (Chicken Ceasar Salad and garlic bread) in his apartment, so so good. Especially after the plane food I had eaten 8 hrs prior. After dinner we played quite a few games of Euchre and made fun of the crazy things on Irish televsion before we went out on the town.
We made our way over to Old Oak, a great pub in downtown Cork, and danced the night away to one hit wonders from the 90's and a slew of other "past their prime" american music. The guiness was good, the hard cider was better...Balmers Cider is what everyone drinks over here, sort of funny cosidering how much Ireland is tied to beer. We will check out more clubs later in the week, but this was a good intro into the Irish nightlife.
