We enjoyed our visit to San Francisco but we're not really big city people being just simple Irish country folk. It was nice to look around and see the sights and I have no wish to be rude to the San Franciscans but we felt we were judged by the thickness of our wallet and we're not used to that type of lifestyle.
We were surprised by the number of Irish people living here as it's on the East coast of America, the West coast being nearer to Ireland.
Like all nationalities they Irish gravitate to each other and we're no different.
Photo's.
1, Needs no introduction, this pint slid down like a cashmere jockstrap..
2, This poster is ironic, we actually sailed from Belturbet in County Cavan at the start of our adventures in the post here on TF as 'Ireland to the Mediterranean part 1' or you can get it in paper or e-book form from Amazon titled as 'Encore' by Geoff Woolley aka Irish rambler.
We know perfectly well of course that there are companies churning out replica posters, name plates and other memorabilia for Irish pubs around the world but they've usually picked up an old template from somewhere because I've checked out info on these posters in the past and it's been genuine, there are a few of course which are fake.
Remember 'Windmills and Wine' here on TF ? when we were in Antwerp we visited an Irish pub and I discovered I had personal recollection and experience of the memorabilia advertised.
The world is a smaller place than we think !
