Belfast, UK


October 6th
This is taken on the bus, on the protestant side of the Peace walls



The Peace Wall was absolutely crazy to see. It is something you grow up learning about, but to actually see it, up close is such a shock. It is real and all the history that it holds is remarkable.

These photos are ones from the Mural tour that we went on throughout Belfast.

 This hotel is very famous for the numerous bombing that occurred here during the Troubles. 


'Nuala and her Ring'
We only stayed in Belfast for a night but it was still interesting to see, we had a few hours of exploring on our own and it was such a unique city. The only downfall was that Northern Ireland is part of the UK so it is not the Euro, they use the Pound and it is SO expensive!!!
