Chicago: St. Paddy's Weekend 2009


















St. Patrick's Day (Saturday 3/14) in Chicago: Watch the Plumbers Union dye the Chicago River green (er...greener), enjoy the Northside St. Patrick's Day Parade on Saturday (The Southside parade is on Sunday), and hang out with friends at an Irish pub in the evening. There are plenty of good Irish Pubs in Chicago where you can enjoy good food and a pint any time of year.

Things are starting to happen in Chicago as everyone is awakening from hibernation. After a long, drawn-out, miserable, cold, winter, St. Paddy's Day is a true marker that spring is on it's way. So whether or not you are Irish, it is a good thing to celebrate this holiday and the coming of spring!

Slainte!

Stay tuned for the rest of my 2007 journey in England.
