St. Patrick's Day


St. Patrick's Day

St. Patrick's Day - 17th March - the day when the Republic of Ireland, Northern Ireland and parts of the USA and Canada are celebrating.They are celebrating in honor of Patrick - a member of the patron saints of Ireland.In the biggest and although well-known cities there are huge parades and all of the members who join them, are wearing green, which is the national colour of Ireland.What I found really remarkable is that inhabitants in Chicago are colouring their famous river green.
When I informed myself about "St. Patty's Day", i thought that it's really cool how they are enjoying such a festival and I decided that I also want to join one of these parades one day.

And that's my favourite video I found on YouTube:
