I am in London, at a hostel Clink78. It was a jail and court house at one time. I am soooo tired, so here are only a few pictures, the more exiting ones, from the Belfast leg of my trip. I loved Belfast! Great city!
 |
'The Big Fish" |
 |
Parliament. |
 |
The court house on Crumlin Road. |
 |
A mural on Shankill Road. |
 |
Mural in The Shankill. |
 |
Shankill- the Protestant/ English stronghold during modern-day "The Troubles." |
 |
This does not look like this... |
 |
...how disappointing. |
 |
My room at the B&B |
 |
Divis Tower. The top 2 floors is where the English Army spied on the Falls Road (Catholic/Irish stronghold) for 30 years. |
 |
another, littler stronghold for the Troubles. . |

My plane. Belfast has ridiculous security. Every person I saw going through had their bags pulled to the side and searched. And, not like in the US, they unpacked most of my backpack (the my jacket). Then they did the bomb test thing on my backpack and the stuff in it. It was not like the US, the people knew what they were doing and looking for and they were friendly about it! |
Im glad you saw the murals. scary.
