th March 2009, not really St Patrick's Day, but they celebrated it early anyways. There was some parade in the morning but we missed that and just went to the festival instead looking for cheap
Irish food and cheap Guinness!!
The festival was at Trafalgar Square and they closed off some road, a lot of roads actually. The bus that we normally take also had to stop like 2km away....so we had to walk all the way to Trafalgar Square!!
Thank goodness the weather was good and the sun was shining, it made the walk just much more bearable.
And this is what greeted us when we reached there....
crowds in green!! with Guinness and beer!!
it was a pretty amazing day, first time can go sleeveless!! The portable Irish bar....no cheap Guinness and beer....more ex than normal pub too!! DAMN a lot of people!! the stage....not so famous (or we don't know about them) bands performing. Only knew ONE song they played towards the end of the festival. This was the start to the sea of green and alcohol. Many Leprechauns came out to play we settled for lunch at a pub first and a Guinness to celebrate St Patrick's Day Irishmen with their kilts and bag pipes some Guinness girls green green day Irish hog roast this is the product, pork roll aips, excited about being able to drink beer in public!!
DAMN a lot of people we were here!! the bar was DAMN busy, EVERYONE was drinking!! err....stressed, not used to drinking in a public area some of the revellers....hot chick next to aips we bought beer from Tesco...hehhe drunk people started getting into the fountain!! mini leprechaun hat Guinness hat more green and Guinness hats! more hats!! everyone was dressed in green! a lot of people mabuk already this old man already DAMN mabuk!! this is how St Patrick's Day should be celebrated!! green fountain the aftermath!!Malaysia also should have St Patrick's Day like this!! DAMN fun, they should make it like Sunburst kind of big! And have ice cold Guinness on tap all day long. Although it may not be so nice coz it's a bit too hot there. For once, being in a cold weather-ed country is nicer to back home.....
I wonder if they have made St Patrick's day more fun this year?
HAPPY ST PATRICK'S DAY!!!
