TWICE AROUND THE WORLD: Part 2

Remember, did you move your clock forward by one hour?  We are now into daylight savings time, and New York is 6 hours ahead of Hawaii.  3 hours for the West Coast.  The time difference between Tokyo and Honolulu is always 5 hours because we remain at standard time. One more point of remembrance.  Wednesday, March 17, is St. Patrick's Day .  There was an actual character named Patrick, who was born British around 460 AD.  However, all you've heard about him is probably false , such as chasing snakes out of Ireland.  He was never canonized. March 17 is a public holiday in Ireland.  However, we do more celebrating in the USA.  In Ireland, they have Dublin Coddle ( right ), a layered dish consisting of bacon, pork sausage and potatoes.  Or Irish Stew, which consists of lamb, potatoes, onions, leeks and carrots.  Here are 18 more Irish dishes . If you subscribe to Music Choice, they are already featuring Irish songs.  If you go to Dublin, the most memorable song is Molly Malone ,
