St. Paddy's Day


Coming into St. Paddy's Day I had no clue what to expect. I had heard rumors that America crazy-fied the Holiday and Ireland did not really celebrate it as much. I would just like to say that these rumors are completely false. From Dublin to Dungarvan there were parades and parties. I started the weekend with a group of friends in Dublin to run a 5K with international students from around the world. As a part of this my group was able to march in the Dublin Paddy's Day Parade! The only problem? It snowed. After a bit of hiking, my group jumped the barriers and ran to the bus station to go back to Dungarvan. We arrived to a full Paddy's Day Party complete with students in their most obnoxious Paddy's Day Finery. Below are a few pictures from the weekend!
