St. Patrick's Day, Dublin

And the day has arrived!!! A drizzly and wet day, however :( Hard to get inspired to dress up.


TYLER = UNIMPRESSED

First stop is St. Patrick's Cathedral... They said it was free admission online - WRONG! They said you could tour from 6:30am to 8pm - WRONG! Well, the outside looks nice :)

We had a breakfast plate and a coffee at Cathedral Cafe - cute little place.

Then watched the parade - a little rainy and cold, but definitely could have been worse :)


WAITING FOR PARADE TO START, OUTSIDE ST. PATRICK'S CATHEDRAL


COLD & WET... BUT WE'RE HERE FOR A GOOD TIME, NOT A LONG TIME! : )









After the parade, we were able to get into the Cathedral, the largest one in Ireland. It was beautiful, as expected. (Forgive me, Lord, for going into such a spiritual and blessed place dressed like such a looney-tune!)








SAINT PATRICK'S CROSS




Then, it was time to celebrate! We stayed out of the "crazy mental" area Temple Bar and hung around the Wexford/Harcourt areas instead - still "mental" but enjoyable!


CIDER = YUCK!!!



FOUND A BUILDING CALLED KRYSTLE!!!!


TYLER STILL UNIMPRESSED...


KRYSTLE IN FULL SWING...


BUT IT DIDN'T TAKE LONG FOR TYLER TO JOIN IN THE MADNESS :)


OH, I CROSSED THE LINE DECORATING HIS EARS, LOL


HAPPY LEPRECHAUN IS BACK! LOVE THIS SMILE!!!


WE EVEN GOT THE LOCALS DRESSED UP!





EVEN THE IRISH MAN WHO SWORE HE WOULNT DRESS UP!


AND HIS NON-CELEBRATORY WIFE

Xoxoxo- Krystle & Tyler
