an irish flag flying in the wind on a sunny day with blue sky and clouds

Lá Fhéile Pádraig sona duit! - Happy St Patrick's Day. The Irish Tricolour flag is flying over Aldro in celebration of this day. The design of the Irish flag is thought to have been a gift to Ireland in 1848 from a group of women in France who were strong supporters of Ireland’s fight for freedom. This might be why the Irish flag’s tri-colour design so closely resembles the French national flag. #stpatricksday #lifeataldro
