This past Saturday I hung out with a friend from Dublin Ireland during the St Patty's day celebration in San Francisco. Having just attended the Game Developers Conference neither of us was particularly interested in crowds so we hopped on a ferry and headed to out into the harbor. We passed Alcatraz and had coffee in Sausalito. I felt embarrassed when we would bump into people along the way with green wigs on but he took it all in stride. We had beers at an oyster house and talked about sea food in Ireland and how they don't eat it all that much there, (meat is preferred). Then we headed into Sir La Table and purchased gifts for our families. It was not such an inspired location for me since they have stores all over the Seattle area but evidently they don't have anything like it in Dublin. He picked up a BBQ slider kit and some egg poaching cups. I grabbed some dinosaur cookie cutters and touristy magnets for the fridge.
It was the most Irish St. Patty's day I've ever had.
