The best way to celebrate Saint Patrick's Day is to drink beer with Irish people.  You can drink beer with the Irish tonight at these great Irish pubs...

There will also be a Saint Patrick's Day Parade through Osaka Castle Park from 12:00 pm today.  You can get more information here: Ireland Festival in Osaka ( http://osakainj.blog.fc2.com/blog-category-4.html )

Be & Me & He usually meet up with students & friends for the parade & drinks.  Unfortunately, Me & He have got the flu (
インフルエンザ) so we'll have to miss out on this year's celebrations.  You can check out photos & videos of previous Saint Patrick's Day events on the following links...
