For this years St Patricks Day celebrations we went on a day trip to Donegal Town. It was such a beautiful day, the best i have seen in a long time...
...We followed my Dads car all the way there, it took exactly an hour and a half and the weather couldnt have been more perfect for the journey...
...Donegal town was buzzing with people of all ages wearing their St Patricks greens and costumes...
...there were bouncy castles, bungy swings and all kinds of activities for the kids...
...But the main event was the St Patricks Day Parade where everyone gathered to watch the decorated floats and vehicles..
First up was the vintage cars...
... which one of them needed a push.. :)
hehe!
...One of the first floats (and possibly my favourite) was by St Francis National school who put together this amazing display based on the stories of the Titanic... They even had two men dancing around dressed as icebergs shouting
"ICEBERG RIGHT AHEAD"
It was very good!
The Teddy Bears Picnic...
... St Patrick himself..
Dorothy, Tin man, Scare Crow and the Cowardly Lion were there promoting the Wizard of Oz musical..
...There was a float with half Alice in wonderland...
...And the other half was Harry Potter...
...How cute is little Voldermort waving away from his cushion :)
...Under the Sea Float by Super Valu...
SHREK!!!
