Londonderry (Derry), Northern Ireland

An interesting visit to Londonderry today. We walked the Derry City Wall which remains completely intact and has never been breached. A guide walked us along the city walls talking of the history of Londonderry and its volatile past. We also went on a walking tour with a brother of one of the innocent men killed in the Bloody Sunday March.

Such a tumultuous past both political and religious - The British, the Irish, the Protestant, the Catholic. Lose of lives, damage to property, a voice wanting to be heard and recognised.
