St. Patrick's Day
I just want to congratulate all Irishmen on steemit for today's Irish national holiday.
I didn't attend a parade or celebration, but I saw shiny green donuts in the grocery store.
After I did some research on google and Wikipedia I find that there is too much material on this topic. I don't have time to dig into this. Unfortunately.
But I have some nice green photos from the famous Irish Pub McGettigan's in Dubai for this occasion.
We were early in for brunch.
The pub was still empty.
Fireplace and firewood in Dubai?
We are always ready for a free pint of Guinness.
Or two.
Beer garden in Dubai with no parasols at noon?
Not a good idea. Look at the shadows.
More wood for the cold days which will never come.
Street view.
Do you want to know the funny part of the story?
Uncle Google said that the official color of St. Patrick day is actually Blue.
Now you know.
Happy Holiday, my Irish friends.

We've still got a couple minutes left to switch the whole world to blue beer. Did you send the memo out?

Happy St Patrick's from Ireland. Hope you enjoyed it. We have a mc gettigans here in galway too, part of the same chain but I will admit that the one there looks a lot nicer. But I will bet that the Guinness is better in ours.
P.s tell old google that blue has nothing to do with paddy's. No idea where they are getting that from.....

Silly Google!
Hello oldtimer how are you? some pictures full of green, and the true color is blue, in the same way your photos are always great
Maybe you'll appreciate this as a fellow Canadian.

All I can say is: Cheers! ;)
I think Google got it right the original color of the day was blue but it switched to green during the irish Rebellion round about 1800 if my memory serves me right
But that said nowadays its all about green and you got some cool green shots here
