First, I’d like to say that I miss my poochy pup. I saw several today and it reminded me… Perhaps his sitters will post a pic?

However, it has been a great St. Patrick’s Day! We started out with a big breakfast and then a long walk in the rain. After waiting around in Burger King, we found a prime location on the street and were ready to rock and roll for the parade.

The parade had very different portions… Marching bands, dancers and weird floats/costumes. Either way, it was fun.

Afterwards, we hopped the train for Dalkey to visit Finnegan’s Pub, a friend of the beer that we volunteer for… And we had a care package. The owner’s son Donal was so happy that he called Jacquie on the spot and gave us free pints!

After a great meal, we came back to Dublin and visited the Irish Craft Beer Festival. Yum!

And I leave you with a final St. Patrick’s Day tradition… Shamrock on your collar!
