Day 72 - Enjoyed a mellow parade day

It was the city's St. Patrick's Day parade today. As a salute to my Irish dad who loved the parade in our hometown, I don his green knit hat and scarf and cheer on the marchers. It was a gorgeous day.


In previous years, we have started parade day with an Irish breakfast and a few pints of Guiness. Usually, we continue the festivities after the parade into the evening. This year was a lot more mellow and just as enjoyable. Mr. Sound and I had our first of two beers only after the parade - Murphy's Stout in Murphy's bar.


We then weaved our way through the city on foot, instead of taking the bus. We ended in Chinatown, which is of course not Irish at all but has delicious food. We ate in a seafood restaurant we've wanted to try for years. It was great. Full and happy, we finally headed home.
