Belfast

We arrived by train at 5:30 pm in belfast. After getting off the train the bus took us into town centre-it was included in the train fare.

The vast majority of stores close early in the evening--8pm. We took a long hike to our hostel. Our room had 20 beds (10 doubles). We all had to share 2 bathrooms and one shower.

It was still light out so we walked around town--and walked some more. On our way to the harbor we were visited by a happy manchester united soccer fan from the previous night--he was a bit tipsy and was singing their chants.

Along the waters edge is the famous large ceramic fish. We took a walk across the waterway to have a great view of the city by the city lights.

We headed back to our hostel for a much needed sleep.
