Our First St. Patrick's Day in Ireland
On St. Patrick's day, we decided to walk into town and experience our first St. Patrick's Day parade. It was a pretty interesting experience.
Walking up to the parade, there were so many people there!

People said that businesses use the Drogheda parade for shameless advertisement without really doing anything parade-y. Such as this garbage truck.... that just drove down the parade. No flags on the truck, nothing, just driving through.
