Interestingly, St Patrick's Day here is not celebrated on 17th March! Well it is but it's moved to the nearest weekend and it's pretty big. Columbia blocks off some streets, sets up a few bands, dresses in green and drinks BUDWEISER (in green cups). It's all rather raucous as a good Irish party should be! There is also a curious passtime called shagging which I'll tell you all about some time... It's not what you might think! For a bit of a change of pace Chris, George and I took a canoe trip down the Saluda River, a peaceful and contemplative way to spend a couple of hours. The water was pretty cold but luckily no-one fell in!
