First year in Ireland, first St. Patrick’s day in Dublin!

‘Stay at home’, they said. ‘It’s going to be crazy’, they said. I didn’t listen 🙂 .

We met at 10 to go see the parade, we were very close to the route it would take. We got even closer, we could have almost touched them… And still we couldn’t see anything…

I have rarely seen so many people just hanging around and having fun (and pints, but mostly fun…).

I even brought my camera, hoping to get some good shots… I shouldn’t have bothered 😀

Still, the best thing to see were the people…

 

And, of course, when everything was over…
