Another European Adventure

This is the first day of our bus tour through Ireland. I am quite excited. There are 27 of us and several of us are Canadians.

I meant to put a little disclaimer on my first entry. There WILL be spelling and grammar mistakes on these entries. The autocorrect feature and typing on an iPhone make it difficult to write. Plus, I don’t always have time to reread my entries and make corrections.

Our first stop was in Belfast for the Black Cab Tour. We had a condensed version of Irish history between the Catholics and Protistans. The wall in Belfast is much higher than the Berlin Wall, about 3 times higher. I find it fascinating that the wall isn’t coming down anytime soon but some progress has been made between the two sides.

We ate lunch at St. George’s Market. It reminded me of the old Covent Garden Market in London. There were lots of artisans and food stalls.

Our next stop was the The Dark Hedges. It was difficult to take a picture. There were too many people there. It was cool to see but I think it would look much better in the summer. A scene from The Game of Thrones was filmed here.

We made our way to Ballintoy. A very small town in northern Ireland. The harbour was close by so we went for a walk to take some photos after we settle into our room.

Tonight is dinner and hopefully in bed early.Baca lagi
