I have just read Werner Leitner´s blog and it talks about Saint Patrick's Day.
Basically what it says it that the people in Ireland, Australia, the United States and New Zealand celebrate this day on 17th of March because of the fact that St. Patrick was the first catholic missionary in Ireland.
It also says that Saint Patrick's Day is celebrated by making parades and wearing the green. The first St. Patrick’s Parade was held in 1931 in Dublin
What surprised me most was the fact that the Chicago river is dyed green every year and they also drink green beer.
As for me I don´t celebrate St.Patrick´s Day but it I think it would be interesting.
