Spotted Duckies love camping. They camp every single weekend in the summer and love playing on slip and slides.

St. Patrick’s Day Duckies

Sláinte

Happy St. Patrick’s Day everyone! When I was in Dublin, Ireland during our around the world trip in 2009, we toured the Guinness factory. It was very neat. The factory was in the shape of a pint glass and the tour ended by drinking a pint or half pint in the bar which was the mouth of the glass. Red Robin’s has Guinness milkshakes for St. Patrick’s day. There are Irish dancers on the google home page and Irish dancers playing at many bars in Edmonton today. So, put on something green and get out and celebrate.

The St. Patrick’s Day duckies work in the Guinness factory. They also get a discount on products. The ducky on the left’s nickname is Carrot. His beard and hair match his beak. He is wearing a 3 leaf clover vest and a green hat. The ducky on the right has a tattoo of a 3 leaf clover on his chest (he regrets that he didn’t go with a 4 leaf clover because it would have been luckier). It is tricky to tell what he is carrying on his back but I believe it is two wooden pint glasses of beer. He has them behind his back so he can surprise his friend with the fact that he actually bought the beer for once.
