Happy St. Patrick’s Day travelers! In honor of the Irish-turned-world holiday, let’s celebrate the few hours on March 17 that the entire globe goes a bit green, reminding far-flung emigrants of home and those with long-held ties to Ireland of the Emerald Isle. Look at these images of the Green Wave and if you’ve taken any photos, we’d love to see them. Let us know via the comment box below the pictures.

Every year new landmarks are added to the Emerald Roster. If you have taken photos of any, we’d love to publish them here. Let us know by using the comment box below.
