After we both were up and had eaten, we went out to do some shopping, to get the tickets for the Saturday night concert at the Triskel Arts Centre, and to see St. Finn Barre's Cathedral, the Anglican/Episcopal Cathedral in Cork named for the patron saint of Cork, St. Finn Barre.

The weather was beautiful for playing outdoors, and Christie and I set up outside the front doors of the Vision Centre and played for a couple of hours.  The Cork Vision Centre is an old church building that has been re-done to provide a place for the City Government of Cork to show their vision for the city.  There is a model of the city and other exhibits inside.  Being an old church, there was a small courtyard with an iron fence at the street, and this is where we were playing.  There were chairs provided by the Centre set up on the other side of the courtyard for people to sit and listen if they wished, and groups would come and listen, then leave to be replaced by another group.  Some took flyers for the festival, and asked questions about what the instrument was.  A few I saw there actually showed up at open festival events!

I woke up finally, and others had already gotten up.  There was a note to meet everyone downstairs in the Burns's apartment, so I got ready and went down. It was about 7PM.  We visited, heard Irene Stuart play her Hurdy-Gurdy, met Nat Magee from Co. Antrim, one of the featured dulcimer players at the festival, and Adrian Schofield a person of self-described "somewhat unique appearance" and an excellent Northumberland Smallpipe player who came to play pipes and to learn dulcimer.

We had a reservation, I think, for 9PM at Leonardo's Bistro, so we ate there and came back for a mighty session in our apartment - Jim, Emily, Cindy, Christie and myself.  As you can see, everyone was tired, but the session was really good anyway!  Stopped about midnight.
