A Dublin St Patrick's Day

We had a lovely St Patrick's Day celebration yesterday. It started with a full Irish fry up for breakfast. It consisted of eggs, beans, rashers and of course our favourite Clonakilty black pudding (putog dhubh!).

We then set off for town, stopping in for a takeaway coffee in Starbucks on Leeson Street. 

It was a lovely mild day as we walked through Stephen's Green and down to College Green. The parade had yet to start and it was beginning to get very busy. 

We walked back up Nassau Street and then on to Dawson Street. After we passed the Shelbourne we went to Toners Pub. Before we sat down I asked was it ok if we brought the dog in. A nice barman said no problem!

Bones sat on high stool beside us while we watched the parade on the television in the pub.

I couldn't resist getting a picture of Bones with these tourists!

After the parade was over, we set off back home with Bones. We left him in the house while we went and got food in Kinara Kitchen. We then ended the day by watching a few House of Cards episodes and were in bed by 9.30pm.

I hope you enjoyed St Patrick's Day as much as I did!
