Today proved to me that I really do love the Irish. From the elderly man that came to tell me his brother was a Dr in Victoria to the 3 men who helped this Aussies damsel in distress to the man in Carrickfergus that offered us his parking ticket for free. They are just lovely people, friendly, and super helpful. The people in our accommodations are like family, welcoming and warm. I met three lovely men this afternoon when we were unsure if we were on the right road, turns out Hugo and I had more idea than the three of them combined.
We travelled from Bushmills to Belfast via the Irish Sea coast. We stopped at Ballycastle, and Larne for coffee and lunch. We stopped at so many twists and turns to check the scenery or the fishing.
It's a fabulous part of the world, and I'm feeling almost saddened to have finally reached Belfast. The coastline is incredible, the people friendly, the scenery breathtaking. Part of me wishes I could live here, but then I remember its summer..
Belfast safely by about 3 o'clock, and although our room wasn't ready till 5, we got to experience a free coffee then a free drink or two in the bR whilst we waited.
Tomorrow brings Belfast City, wish us luck!
One day Cher and I will do this. ��
