Monday, April 15 (Daniel)

On Monday me and my friends traveled to Belfast and Northern Ireland for a long day trip. After a bus ride up to Belfast, we visited some of the murals that were painted on city walls, which depicted current events and political leaders such as Nelson Mandela. After that, we visited the Peace Wall where we signed our names and took some nice pictures. We then went further into the city towards the city center, where we stopped to look around some shops and take photos. Then we visited the docks where the Titanic was built, and took a quick look inside the gift shop. We then departed Belfast for the Rope bridge further North, however it was closed due to the windy weather we had that day. We were still able to take in some impressive views from the cliffs near the ocean, and got a quick snack at a local cafe. After that, we traveled to Giants Causeway, where we took a hike to see some of the rock formations. After our hike, we stopped at the hotel nearby for some dinner. It was a very long day, but a good one to remember as we rode the bus back down to Dublin to finish off the day.
