A little taste of Cork

Cork City isn't really a huge sightseeing destination (which is actually really nice, it makes it more legitimately Irish than cities with big tourist industries). The biggest landmark is St. Fin Barre's Cathedral (which is on my walk to UCC), so I've got a few pictures of that, as well of UCC's campus and the city itself. There was a visiting choir from Trinity College in Dublin which sang the mass at St. Fin Barre's this weekend, so I went to that, which was very good...besides that, not a whole lot going on, classes are good so far (I've only had two), weather's gone back and forth between sunny and rainy, and overall I'm having a great time.
