THE

LEPRECHAUN'S BREAKOUT

Will you find the pot of gold?

WARNING! There have been several sightings of leprechauns these days. Legend has it that these little creatures store gold in a big pot which they hide in a secret place. If you happen to capture a leprechaun, he might take you to his treasure. But be careful! A leprechaun is a really mischievous creature. He will disappear if you stop looking at him and he will try to trick you!

Wow! You've got such a good eye! You got me!!!!!!!!! What do you want from me? Ok... Let's see... I will take you to my gold pot if you let me go afterwards...DEAL?

THE IRISH FLAG

The white center of Ireland’s flag represents the peace and the hope that the country’s Protestan and Catholic populations (represented by the colours orange and green, respectively) can live together in harmony. In this picture, we can see a famous street in Dublin, Ireland's capital city, covered with the colours of the Irish flag. The street looks almost empty, except for a few pedestrians.

THE GREEN RIVER

In other countries like the US, many people celebrate it because they have Irish ancestors. The Chicago river is dyed green for the Saint Patrick's Day's celebrations. This picture shows the green river in the daylight and it captures the moment when a ship is right under the bridge.

GALWAY

Galway is home to some of Ireland's most iconic tourist locations, including the beautiful landscape of Connemara and the Aran Islands. Due to its association with the Irish language and music traditions, it's often called the 'Bilingual Capital of Ireland'.

You're not going to believe it, but the gold is not in Galway either. It used to be hidden here for some time, but I forgot to mention the fact that I moved it somewhere else. I'll tell you after next task. It's a promise!
