St. Patrick's Eve

Taking a small break from Spring Break blogging to bring you some good old Irish craic.

People dancing in the street

Today Laura, Brittany, and I headed downtown to catch some of the St. Patrick’s Day festivities which did not disappoint. The mood of the city was great and there more than a few goofy green hats.
When we first got there we went to go see the event that was taking place by St. Stephen’s. There was a stage set up and some musicians playing. There were even some people within the crowd doing Irish dance. Brittany and I tried our hand at the Irish dance that they were teaching us but we just got dizzy.

After spending some time there we went shopping for some St. Patrick’s gear but then we came up with the plan to just buy it on Thursday when it would be on sale. We’re so thrifty. We walked around a little bit more soaking in the festive atmosphere. Laura had to go meet up with other friend Margaret at Trinity so she left and Brittany and I went grocery shopping for dinner. We decided on having chicken Caesar salad for dinner and got the supplies for that.

After taking the bus home I made dinner while Brittany played Irish music to get in the festive mood. After dinner we spent time blogging and uploading photos together. Can’t wait for tomorrow!
