day 9 (Sunday)

So its 10pm sharp here in N. Ireland. We crossed the border into UK territory this morning with a 2 hour drive. Now, without getting all historical, there are simply put probelms between N Ireland (UK) and Ireland. This stems from culturally, but mainly religious diffrerences. We are in Belfast now, not the most safe of cities. In fact, we are staying in a hotel directly next to the Europa, where they had those bombings like a decade ago. to reassure you, I AM SAFE.

okay, so today's recap. but before we get into that, let's take a break and hear from our sponsor, APAHM. Asia Pacific American Heritage Month is widely celebrated during the month of May. Here in Ireland, citizens celebrate frequently, and I hope you are celebrating in America.

Back to the recap of today. We woke up and left Dublin after taking a cruise on the river liffey. the rest of the day was spent in transit to N. Ireland and doing a city bus tour of Belfast. We saw some art, belfast castle, and most significantly, where the titanic was built.

at dinner tonight we had carrot cake for desert and it was delicious.
