Regardless of whether or not you have Irish blood in you, Americans have always loved to celebrate Saint Patrick's Day. If you're in the mood to have a great time next weekend, then San Francisco has an answer for you.
Their famous Saint Patrick's Day Parade has been around for 164 years(!), and has a huge festival to go with it. The parade itself is on Saturday March 14th at 11:30 am, starting on the corner of Second and Market and the festival is all day long from 10 am to 5 pm.
There are local Irish Dance groups and music, police and firefighters, public officials and more in the parade, sure to be a hit with kids. The festival though sounds like it's sure to be a show stopper. They'll have a petting zoo, face painting, crafts, children's rides, even horse rides! Along with many different food and beverage booths, this is sure to be a family Saint Patrick's Day to remember.

I highly recommend taking the Ferry in so you don't have to deal with all the traffic of getting out of there in the evening!
Happy Friday, have a great weekend!
