Happy St. Patrick’s Day! ☘️

It’s been a subdued St. Patrick’s Day, and so far, no protests have materialised in Dublin.

I took a stroll yesterday evening to take a few photos of various buildings lit up in green:

View of the Samuel Beckett Bridge lit up with LED lights on the suspension wires with Convention Centre on left:


The Customs House:


The General Post Office (GPO) building on O’Connell Street:


The Millenium Bridge:
Dublin City Hall:
The Bank of Ireland building on Dame Street:
The front of Trinity College Dublin at the end of Dame Street:
My neighbor Irene left me this St. Patrick’s Day surprise out my door this morning:

My friend CJ and I meet for a brief walk in the afternoon, heading down to Grafton Street to St. Stephens Green. The increased gardai presence is definitely noticeable, and helicopters patrol overhead.


Temple Bar Square:



The arched entrance to St. Stephens Green:


Lots of people peacefully enjoying the sunshine on the lawns of St. Stephens Green:


Until next time….
