Green, greener, the greenest

The prevailing colour is green, the most worn accessory is a leprecon hat and the keyword of the day is parade. Guessed what I am talking about? Yeees, it is St. Patrick’s Day, or as they call it lovingly in Ireland – St. Paddy’s Day.

We set out to the city center on a fine day in March to witness for the first time what is called a grand street parade. And in fact we did witness it, along with thousands of others trying to push their way to the front for a better view J

What can I say – it was festive, overcrowded and with a lot of loud music – just like it should be! We had a fun day out, but the best part came after the parade when we hurried to the pub to wet our parched lips with a large glass of cool Guinness.

Sloncha!!!
