Belfast

Northern Ireland is a puzzle. I don't know what the animosity is all about. Mostly religion, which is nuts but true. We started the day with a trip to the Giant's Causeway on a cold and rainy morning. I don't know what I expected but it was an over-rated World Heritage site. Just a bunch of big stones in the water near the shoreline. Some Game of Thrones filming took place there. It was a long walk down and cold and rainy. Actually, we had another activity first. We went to a site where there was a small suspension bridge over a deep cravass over the water. It was a tremendously hard climb and we were all totally exhausted. Crowds galore. Lunch on time run then a tour of Belfast, especially the areas where the fighting occurred. Not much different at present. There s still a giant wall separating the Protestant and Catholic areas of the city. It looks just like the Berlin Wall.
