Day 11: Ballygally - Belfast
What joy to be wakened by sunshine streaming in the Castle windows. Dawn breaks at about 4.30 am in this midsummer season and darkness falls about 11.00. So I really enjoyed the photo opportunities prior to our departure along the Antrim Coast to the amazing city of Belfast. It is a Victorian City which the architecture reflects. We enjoyed a coach tour of the city prior to our afternoon's walking tour in this superb sunshine.
The coach then picked us up to drive us to the newly developing dockside which was preparing for the arrival of all the tall ships. Flags are flying every where and all the flower baskets are breathtaking.
Undeniably the feature is the new state of the art Titanic Belfast Building built on the shipyard where the Titanic was built. Our 3 hours there just flashed by.
Many of our wonderful group members have already left and the rest of us will be travelling to Dublin at 6.00 am tomorrow.
