Hi Jonathan!

One thing I learned from Irish people (in their words, not mine) is that Irish people travel a lot. Almost everyone I talked to had lived somewhere else for a time, so it’s likely that in every major city in the world there’s at least one Irish pub and one Irishman or Irishwoman.

Given the feckin’ weather, couldn’t blame them.

Thanks for sharing these photos Doug! It never occurred to me that there would be a St. Patrick’s Day parade anywhere in Japan…I guess you learn something new every day.

Nor did I until I went to Nash’s with my friends one afternoon after work. I thought the name was confusing, but once I tried them, they’re quite good.

Ha ha ha

Tornado: If you want to sound really Irish, “think” sounds more like “tink” and my friends there usually called it “St. Pat’s”. I never could get it right though. :p

Robert: Getting late my friend. It’s late there already if I know my timezone’s right. Then again, people will be out all night anyway.

Happy St. Patrick’s day to you too.

That reminds me I wanted to do a Patrick’s day post too… still time I guess!

Ah yes, Happy St Patty’s Day (using Irish accent). I think I’ll enjoy a pint tonight.
