St. Patrick's Day 3-17-03

Picture Source: I took all the pictures and movie.

Well I made the famous New York City St. Patrick's Day parade and it was mobbed. Due to security many of the streets leading down to the parade were closed. The streets you could get down to the parade on were chuck a block (packed). Here are a few pictures of the event for those of you that couldn't make it. The pictures are not the best but you can get an idea of the crowds from them. It was estimated that 150,000 people marched and 2,000,000 people watched. I was so far behind people that these pictures were taken by holding the camera over my head, that's why some of them are at such a ridiculous angle.




You can see how far back we were and we got there early.



This is what happens when you are holding the camera above your head crocked.



We were able to get a little closer here.





On the way home.



Here is a terrible movie I took which I messed up at the end. It was just too hard to hold the camera over my head.
