Belfast

This morning Marl and Millie are taking a little trip out of town to find a memorial to Millie’s Great Uncle who died in the war. It’s a nice sunny morning if a bit windy so Graham and I are going to visit the Botanical Gardens.

It’s only a short walk from our unit to the gardens. We had a coffee on the way and then finished our stroll down. Lovely gardens with lots of flowers and surprisingly lots of tropical plants. They have two glass houses for all the tropical plants and they were all looked after pretty well. One is set on 30 degrees and the other 38 degrees. Nice coming in there when it’s so blustery and cold outside.

They also had a lovely rose garden, I was surprised any petals were left on those roses with all the wind we’ve had the last couple of days. Lots of couples and families out enjoying the gardens this morning.

The road leading up to the gardens goes past a building and there must have been 5 or 6 op shops along that street. We broke a few glasses last night so we called in to buy some replacements.

By that time we were hungry so went of in search of for lunch. We found Hercules Restaurant along High St. We were the only ones in there, I don’t know why because it was delicious. Actually it’s pretty quite all around town this morning.

Marl and Millie got back into town just as we finished lunch do we picked them up on the way home.

We’re off to Scotland tomorrow, to see what other adventures we can have. Czytaj więcej
