Cork and the Blarney Stone, Ireland
Thursday, October 5, 2006
Kilkenny was a great little town to visit, with a sweet little cinema, the tiniest main street ever, and a fab three sided castle.
Today in Cork we travelled out to Blarney and got to smack gobs with the infamours Blarney Stone, which was actually alot more challenging than i had imagined )you lean out over a precipice with an old bloke making sure you dont fall the 4 storeys as you re leaning over backwards to kiss the thing).
I also got me an Ireland jumper and Rhiannon was helped to locate the family name on the ,Family Name Tea Towel, by a friendly local shop owner. Although theres not much else exciting to be done in Cork, our little hostel is comfy, and it was a great way, all in all, to end the trip )by acquiring the gift of the gab that is...)
Thank you to all our eager subscribers )from Rhiannon and myself) for your loyal viewing of our travels. We have enjoyed your quirky comments and emails along the way.
Ill finish up now with an Irish Proverb, to bless our journey to Wales, mine to Turkey, and both our safe returns to Deutschland.
#As you ride down the slide of your life, may all the splinters be facing the right way#
love love
Alex and Rhiannon

Hello Lassie
Hey there, Have sent a message via Mum's travel blog, but thought I would try yours also. Due to security restrictions at Millfield I can't access my email. I hoping to travel to Bath tonight or tomorrow at the latest. It depends on how late my mate gets back from a school trip to London today. Anyway will be making my way from there to London. I will call Pru tomorrow when I am certain of things and hopefully track you down. I have also managed to book our first night in Istanbul. 11 Euros each which I hope it is okay, basicaly the cheapest I could find. Am getting excited about Turkey and hoping the weather is good. Enjoy the family reunion.
Em xoxo
