OK. Welcome, everybody. We’re lucky with the weather today.[32]It is unusual for it to be so hot here at this time of year — we’re more used to rain which is why everything’s so green. Now,[33]Cork is Ireland’s second largest city and 420, 000 people live here. That’s much smaller than our capital city Dublin, which has a population of 1, 058, 000. The city centre is actually on an island surrounded by the river. When people arrive in the city by car, they often get very confused by all the bridges they keep crossing as they go from one part of the city to another.
    As you walk down St. Patrick Street, you’ll see on one side old buildings going back to the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. On the other side are mainly modern offices and shops. You may want to come back and spend some time looking at the older buildings and churches we pass. After that, we will visit the famous covered food market. If you want to stop and buy something,[34]I suggest the bread, which they bake several times a day or some fresh fruit. They also sell fresh fish but it’s a bit hot to carry that around today. In the Grand Parade we’ll go past some very pretty buildings and we’ll then stop in the cafe in the Art Gallery for a drink. This is an excellent place to have lunch if you want to come back another day. We can’t visit the university and the Public Museum on this walk, but I recommend that you go there another day. The museum is open every afternoon between two and five except Saturday, but it’s also open in the morning from Monday to Friday. Now, if you’re ready, we’ll set off.
