Behind the Parade 2

Apparently, it's now a 10-day celebration! Yea, right, or good for business!

The owner of this flag thinks it's all over! The 10-day message escaped them.

This pub was well decked out, ready for celebrations!

This made me laugh, three tractors IS a parade!

Painting faces for charity, and, in return for a donation, I got to take her photo. Fair deal!

These Shamrock tights were very popular.

This, to me, is a perfect pint of Guinness, a chocolate one!

This guy was popular, there were queues to get their photo taken with him.

Of course, we had to have "Póg Mo Thón" !

A discarded wand, wonder why?Someone else who doesn't realise it's now a 10-day Festival!

This lady got in the green groove.

And the charity shops had the Green theme too!

Behind the Parade 1

I'm soo excited! Did you hear the news?

Barak Obama is coming to Ireland!!! Can't wait till May!
Something weird is happening on my computer- each time I try to open a picture , I get a message denying access. Everyone else is gone to bed, and I've no idea how to rectify this problem. It is a problem cos I'm adding photos without previewing them....

So this is just a taster of my day behind the scenes at the Parade.

I just about caught the wonderful shamrocks on this girl's tights!

More tomorrow!
