Saint Patrick’s Day – Weekly Hump Day Photo
Happy Hump Day! What is Hump Day you may ask yourself? Check out this quick description then come right back…
Each Wednesday we post up a picture of something that we have found helps us imagine NOT being at work and helps us get to the weekend faster. It could be just a relaxing beach, a surfing location, a great snorkelling spot, a destination, well you get the idea.
Where In The World This Week?
None other than Dublin, the home of Guinness, in celebration of this weekends Saint Patrick’s Day!
This photo is from just one of our trips to Ireland and features the River “Liffey” which actually means “A Life in Irish” and it flows through the centre of Dublin.
If you don’t know what Saint Patrick’s Day is then you surely must have been living in a hole your entire life. To be fair, I basically have no idea what it is for either but it is a fantastic excuse to eat, drink and be merry with all of your friends in the closest Irish bar you can find. And there are no surprises that there are Irish bars in practically every city and country in the world.
So this weekend make sure you grab a pint of the black stuff (Guinness) and raise it in a salute to Saint Patrick, the mighty Patron Saint. I know we will be enjoying a few

I was just in Ireland for a week; this time yesterday I was at the Liffey! This photo makes me wish I didn’t have to leave Dublin…
It is a pity that you were not in Dublin for St Patrick’s Day!
Looking forward to it myself! Great photo…
Thanks Deej!
Love it! I was in Dublin just before St. Patrick’s Day in 2010. Such a charming city!
It is alright to spend a couple of days there but holy crap it is expensive!
Great photo! I would not have guessed that was Dublin, but timely selection. Ugh … now I want a Guiness
All in good time
Sadly I won’t be in Dublin for St. Patrick’s Day celebrations. But I WILL be attending the NEXT BEST THING – the Springdale, Utah St. Patrick’s Day parade and Green Jello Carving Contest! Always a hit with visitors and locals alike – Springdale can be found just outside Zion National Park in southern Utah.
I really want to see the pictures of the Green Jello carving contest!
St Patricks Day – it’s like “world celebrate the Irish” day. No idea how it got to be so popular, but it’s a bloody great excuse to drink lots of Guinness
I hear that! Was not a fan of Guinness until I actually did the Guinness Storehouse tour!
Loved Dublin. Especially the bridges. The black and white is moody but I think Dublin works best in color.
It wasn’t a great photo to be honest Andrew so the black and white definitely worked best here. Plus Guinness is the perfect compliment to black and white
Heard so much about Ireland but never been there! This is a great shot.
Thanks Arti
Make sure you get there and time if for Saint Paddy’s day. Absolutely mental!
