Happy St. Patrick's Day

 

 

 Today is Saint Patrick's Day, a holiday not only celebrated in Ireland, but also the United States, Canada, and a number of other countries where numbers of Irish settled. 

 

Second Life boasts a couple noteworthy locations related to the holiday. One is the Castle Blarney Pub, located in the Dublin sim. This venue has been in Second Life for over a decade and can be counted to draw a crowd this time of year. So be prepared for lag. "Come visit the lively, always-exciting Blarney Stone Irish Bar in Second Life. Social events and live DJ music occur daily. Live music concerts are also held three times a week."

Dublin (82/82/25).

 

Another is Castle Blarney in the Wilde sim. It's where the Blarney Stone is located in real life. And here in Second Life, making the journey is just a teleport away. Just head to the top, lay on the floor where the stone is, and kiss it. Will you receive the gift of gab (or be "full of Blarney")? Who knows (yours truly has kissed it a few times inworld).

 

And don't forget to check around for St. Patrick's-themed events.

 

Happy St. Patrick's Day.
