Top of a good mornin'

Work has once again taken me abroad… and what a perfect time to be in Dublin! It was one of the busiest weeks in Dublin with two major rugby matches and various St Paddy’s day festivities to enjoy. Below are some photos from one of the many events in remembrance of St Patrick, a leader in the Irish Christian faith who used the shamrock to explain the Holy Trinity.
Top: The town painted green, with plenty of leprechorn hats... including one climbing the traffic lights.
Above: Extravagant floats, big bands, colourful costumes & plenty of dancing… the parade through town had it all!
