Celtic Fest Chicago Pics

[Galician]

Here are my pics of my event:

The view as I approached the city


Here I am standing over the river which gets turned green for St. Patrick's Day


JRB requested a better view of the New York City tartan I was wearing that day.
It was a gift of the Scottish Weavers Association to the City after 9/11, and has two black,
parallel stripes as a memento of the WTC. It was my first kilt and I wear it with pride,
both as a WTC survivor and in honor of the three members of my extended family who
were lost there that day.

The Chicago cityscape, arriving at the park where the fest takes place


At the park, we ran into the big Mexican Independence Day parade


Despite earlier weather forecasts, the day turned out bright and sunny!
