Green for a day.

March 17th is a special day for all the Irish people around the world as they, and others, celebrate St. Patrick Day. The Irish have observed in different forms, this day, for centuries, to celebrate the life of Saint Patrick, the religious patron of Ireland.

St. Patrick Day events are organized all around the world but the biggest are the New York City parade and Dublin parade, of course.

It feels good to be surrounded by so much green. Consequently I become Irish for a day.
