Actually I have heard about this irish holyday called St. Patrick’s Day before – in english class. But I didn’t know that there are so many Kiwis that claim to have irish heritage! On this day nearly everybody claims that his/her great-great-great-grandparents – or whoever – has originally been from ireland. And thus, everybody celebrates his/her irish heritage on this day. Even many americans we got to know, claimed that they’ve got some percentage of irish heritage, because they’re great-grandfather once…..(i dont believe them!) We just celebrated our lack of irish heritage
