We had quite the busy day!! We did a black cab tour of the causeway and Belfast. Our tour driver, Paddy, picked us up at 8:30. A quick note on him: a Belfast native, he founded his tour company here. He was lovely to us but not completely unbiased like he claimed to be. When someone lives through something like the troubles here, they tend to have opinions that shine through. Anyway, we started off up at the rope bridge right on the coast about an hour north of the city. From there, we headed towards Giant’s Causeway to climb the rocks. After spending approximately 4 hours up North, we came back to Belfast for our mural tour. Next we got dropped off in the city center for drinks, and then stopped to pick up a pizza at Greens Pizza on the way home. We spent our evening relaxing after our long day.
