Up for Air

Back in the game with internet access . . . at least for today. Kristy and I are watching the Covell's kids while they're at the Ryder Cup practice day with Rod & Dawn Taylor, so we're borrowing their broadband connection while we're here. Hope to have internet access hooked up at the new house on Friday.

Things are coming along nicely. We've got most of the boxes unpacked and 85% of our stuff put away. Yesterday, we were in the city trying to get a vehicle tax disk and trading my UK driver's licence in for an Irish one (neither of which we were successful at, for various reasons).

When I got home and read a newspaper, I realized that the Dublin Fringe Festival has been going for a few days. One of the most brilliant things they're doing is a series of live "geurilla style" art installations whereby artists perform various eye-catching artistic feats randomly throughout the city. Yesterday, shortly after Kristy and I were headed out of the city centre, someone dumped pink dye (eco-safe) into the River Liffey. I'm telling you - Dublin is one artistic place!

I'll try to write more and post some pictures this weekend.
