Happy St.Patrick's Day!!! Indeed! - Mar. 17, 2006 at 07:34 AM
Sorry, been out of sorts lately - stupid cold kept me dazed and confused, so any 'spare' time I spent sleeping! Melissa and I checked our cold selves out of the hostle on Wednesday and so have spent the last 2 nights at Shannon's lovely flat in Kilmainham. We toured Wicklow and Glendalough on Tuesday; did the 'hop on, hop off Dublin Tour bus' on Wednesday, to get all the historical info we could in one day!; then yesterday we took a train/bus tour to the Cliffs of Moher and Galway! Very cool stuff! This morning I was finally feeling like myself (thanks to Benylin 4 Flu and vitamin C!!!) Melissa and I headed out to participate in the St.Patrick's Day Parade at 8:30am (the parade itself began at 12 noon). You will never guess where we were in the parade!!! RIGHT AT THE FRONT!! Yeah, that's right, Melissa and a nice Polish guy named Christian were on the right and left sides of the street respectfully, and I, Liz 'It's my Birthday Today' Kaye, was right smack dab in the middle of the street, walking in front of all the bands and floats and street performers! We were the first thing everyone saw of the parade all day! The 3 of us were carrying St.P day banners that kept catching the wind, almost tossing us into the crowds! So super crazy fun! Gotta buy a few papers tomorrow and see if my mug made the cut!
