The 17th St.Patrick’s Day Parade in Tokyo

I went to The 17th St.Patrick’s Day Parade in Tokyo with my friend.

We met at Omotesando station, and went to FUJIMAMAS to eat a special buffet.

I didn’t know about St.Patrick’s Day until yesterday.

So, I didn’t wear anything green which I regretted at once.

Many people were wearing something green, and they looked very happy.

I enjoyed the special lunch and talked with my friend for about 2 hours.

A band played Irish music during lunch.

When we finished lunch and left, there were many people in the street.

Since there was only a little time until the parade started, we went to an event stage at Omotesando-hilｌs.

There were many people there too.

I said to my friend that I didn’t know there were so many Irish in Tokyo!

She said to me there are many people whose ancestors are from Ireland.

The 17th St.Patrick’s Day Parade Tokyo started at 2:00p.m.

Various groups took part in the parade, and many audience took pictures.

I was given a shamrock seal by a woman who was taking part in the parade,and I pasted it on my cheek.

I thought that he who enjoys everything enjoys life!

After the parade, fortunately we could see ”Riverdance“ at Omotesando-hilｌs.

I loved it!!

I enjoyed this event very much!
