New Pubs
We checked out the pub, Molly Malone's this past Sunday. Its an Irish themed pub just a few blocks from our apartment. The weather was slightly crappy out, so what better to do than go to a pub? On the way out we met our little neighbor lady. She is an older lady that lives right above us. Whenever we meet her in the close, she chats and chats. On Sunday, she asked where we were going (like always) and we could not lie to her. I thought about it, but Mike told her we were going to Molly Malone's. We then found out everything she had heard in church that morning. I think she went home and prayed for our sinful souls going to pubs on a Sunday. We definitely felt slightly guilty after that, but went anyway. It was quite neat inside, and on Friday and Saturday nights they have live music, so I think we may head back this weekend to see if its any good. On St Patrick's Day the music and festivities start at 3pm here. I am trying to convince Mike to go, but the Scottish are serious drinkers and some can get rather violent when drinking... so, he's not sold yet.
Today we went to the Bon Accord. Its exactly in the middle of work and home. Could be dangerous for my walks home with Mike meeting me halfway... But... It was spectacular inside. They have a wide selection of whiskeys and have the real ales that we like. The real ales are really popular around here, and are usually better AND cheaper. The interior of this place is amazing. Their beer prices are slightly pricey, but their food prices are dirt cheap. We have heard that they will give tours of their cellar if you ask. We decided to ask when mom and dad are here. (Only 13 more days now!)

I am so glad you are not counting and probably not really excited about the visit?? Yeah, right! I am not sure who is really more excited about the trip. Have a wonderful day. Loads of love to both of you. Love, Aunt Sue
Maybe Mike is right, if the places get wild on st pattys day maybe home early wouldn't be a bad idea since we are coming right after that.
Love Mom
