P.S. St. Patrick's was spend with the Hash in Osaka where we donned pieces of green (shower cap for me) and did another splendid jog through the inner city, and as it turns out the Japanese have never heard of the celebration. This was quickly proved to me upon entering the first empty Irish pub I have ever been in on Pats day, and by the 11p.m last call... a true travesty.

Though to their credit, they did have Guinness on tap.
