The Dublin parade is going at a fair clip now with some banging techno from the Inis Owen peninsula, Conor Pope reports.
This is alongside some half goat half human creatures terrifying the marching bands and baton twirlers from Florida who they are chasing.
The men and women from Revenue get a great big cheer while some folk in the crowd eye their sniffer dogs nervously. And although the dogs do pay some of those watching the parade some pretty close attention, there are - thankfully - no arrests or drug seizures.
