St. Patrick's Day

My usual saturday morning would be waking up at 11, going to Temple for Idly-vada which is my brunch and then probably going back to sleep or watching movies. But last week for a change we decided to go for St. Patrick's day parade in St.Louis downtown. I had never been to a parade in US before. Also Bela was enthu to attend the Irish celebration. All I knew about St. Patrick's Day was its an Irish festival where everything is green - decorations, clothes and even beer.

We had a nice half n hour ride to downtime St.Louis in metro. The parade started with clowns, jugglers etc and then the school bands started coming in playing sync music. There were military people, huge ballons, para-jumpers and all kind of advertisers you could think of. My favorite were the Irish dancers, little girls with curly pony tails dancing in perfect sync to the Irish music. After 2 hours of parade it was getting little boring as you wait for the next band to come in!

We didn't wait for the full parade to end, coz it was getting colder by the minute and our enthu was dying. Well it was nice experience for the first time. But I have to think twice if I have to go again!
