People, People Everywhere and Too Many Pints to Drink

This past weekend Isma and I visited Colin in Chicago. Saturday, after enjoying juice, croissants, and coffee, we headed downtown to see the green river and parade.

Singing...either they're Irish, drunk, or both. It's before 10 AM.

People in green streamed in from everywhere. 

Police on horses! 

The river dyed green.

Bagpipers motoring up and down the emerald river.

The fake car body is built around what I believe is a simple fishing boat.

Great day to advertise for the summer!

Even the dogs were festive (and pose).

Masses crossing empty streets to go to the parade.

It was so crowded, we couldn't really see the parade.

No Irish for lunch because of extreme lines.

The waffles were good, though!

Don't know why, but I like the blue tiles before the tracks.

Being weird in public.
