...On a Perfect Irish Day?

You have arrived at your inn in Kilarney, your first stop on your trip to research your family tree.

You go to the county records office which is in a lovely old house with a thatched roof. A little old lady with a thick brogue and a mischievous twinkle in her eye brings you a cup of tea and adds another log to the fire that is keeping away the chill.

Your search shows that your great great great grandfather grew up a half hour drive from the town and you head out to take a look and there is still a run down little building on the property, but no one lives there anymore, so you take some pictures and head back to town.
You go to the pub for a pint and some lamb stew that is served with a crusty roll. mmm...

A couple of people pick up some instruments and start playing some drinking songs. You remember the words from your nana singing them and join in :)

What would you wear to have a perfect Irish day?
