St Paddy's Day

Did you know that yesterday it was Saint Patrick's Day?

St Patrick's Day occurs annually on March 17 in observance of the death of St Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland.

What began as a religious feast day in the 17th  century has evolved into a variety of festivals across the globe celebrating Irish culture with parades, special foods, music, dancing and a lot of green!

If you don't remember the history of Saint Patrick's Day... here is a funny video for you!




But St Patrick's Day is not celebrated just in Ireland: indeed people of Irish heritage celebrate it all over the world!




In Chicago they even colour the river in green!


Ehm... poor dog!

Can you think of a similar celebration here in Italy?
