Cork Clipper Festival 2010

We've been luck to catch the Cork Clipper Festival which is happening this week on the back of the Clipper Race which made a stop in Kinsale this year. We did plan to make a trip to Kinsale yesterday but the weather changed our plans. And today even though we were down by the quay for almost three hours we never managed to see the boats. But the kids were well entertained by the shows and the rides. Iman and Jack both went up the Helter Skeltar and Jack went on the swings all by himself.

Biggest highlight though was being approached by a tv crew to get the kids into the train for a shot. Just moments before they were begging to go on the train but as soon the there was a free ride with a tv camera they refused and I literally bribed Iman and Jack with another ride to do it. But all turned out well and they appeared on the news clip as promised!
