Hello everybody!
Today is a very special
day for Ireland. Their national holiday is represented in the whole world, even
google changed their logo to the colour green and put a cloverleaf on top of
it. I’m impressed how international St. Patrick’s Day is celebrated and it
shows how strong the bound of community can be. Many people wear an item of green clothing on the day.
Parties featuring Irish food and drinks that are dyed in green food colour are
part of this celebration.
St Patrick is one of the
patron saints of Ireland. He is said to have died on March 17 in or around the
year 493. He brought the Christianity to the island.
The most common St
Patrick's Day symbol is the shamrock. The shamrock is the leaf of the clover
plant and a symbol of the Holy Trinity. Many people choose to wear the color
green and the flag of the Republic of Ireland is often seen in St Patrick’s Day
parades around the world. Irish brands of drinks are popular at St Patrick’s
Day events.
Regards,
Katja
