Irish pub, in Albi, France

First, let me say that things are getting a bit crazy here, the stress of finishing up and leaving seems to be getting to everyone.  Here is a picture of Kirsten trying to put a can of whipped cream in Melanie's mouth.  Why, I am still not sure.

Studious, serious college students at their finest!

Several students, Melanie, Lauren Kirsten, Gabe, and I went to the Irish Pub in Albi.  It was a great night.  We first walked around the city of Albi, and they had some very nice decorations up.  Actually more than the last time we were there.  I took some Flip video of the decorations, but can't figure out how to download them to here.

The Irish Pub in Albi

At the pub, they were having a kareoke night.  Unlike American kareoke where the music is played on a cd, the music here was played by a young guitar player.  He was very good.  We had come to the bar, hoping to have some fun.  We started the fun with a pint of Grunberger de Noel, a Christmas beer.  It was pretty good.  After we looked at the song book, we started to coax, actually coerce, our one very good singer, Kirsten, to go up and sing.  I used every trick I knew, including reverse psychology, which she caught on to very fast, and finally and a little of the Grunberger, went up to sing.  She was amazing!  Her voice is very special.
After, we sang along to a good deal of Beatle songs. It was a nice evening all in all.  I hope to figure out to get the photos and video somewhere on the site.  I'll let you know.
