Fell asleep watching some Irish telly. It was a movie just like Cadet Kelly with Hilary Duff.
Got my free breakfast. I got free breakfast for my stay because of how long I had to wait for my room yesterday morning, otherwise the breakfast would be seven euro every morning. Also, did I tell you that Dublin uses Euro? Yeah, but Belfast uses the Pound. Dublin is in the United Kingdom so I don't understand why it's Euro. I'm going to Galway tomorrow and I heard that they use Euro as well.
Belfast today. Eh. It felt like a day trip to some town down in South-East England except more people and more shops. The bus stop was hard to find, and the bus ride was over two hours. Slept both ways. Once I was there I found a tourist shop for a map and saw there was a International wall (graffiti). Only problem was, I couldn't find it. I asked two people and still, couldn't find it. I gave up. I just started to walk into town and on High St./Castle St. Yeah, there is a castle. Didn't bother because it didn't seem like a big deal. St. Anne's cathedral but, same thing. Also, I have seen a lot of cathedrals. They all start to look the same, except the Vatican (breath-taking). Once, I was in city centre I saw a crowd and noise. It's Fools Festival there in Belfast for the week. I saw the end of a dance crew and the beginning of jugglers. Walking around, there were little shows everywhere. Also, I saw this little thing waddling. I crossed the street and it started to come at me, and yeah, I screamed a little. That thing was incredibly creepy.
Found a shopping centre and I climbed to the top of it to view the entire city. Oh, it didn't rain at all today! I was so upset seeing that it will rain during my entire stay except Monday. But, Belfast did me a solid and canceled the rain. I even checked the weather this morning before leaving and it said rain. Lucky me!
After deciding there was nothing left to do, I headed back to the bus stop. Of course I was twenty minutes early and of course, the bus was twenty minutes behind schedule. The day was pretty good, I got to see Northern Ireland. The only thing I wish I got to see out of Ireland and even Scotland, are the valleys and hills. Not the cities.


Just for future reference, the Republic of Ireland is within the British Isles but not the UK - it's a separate country, hence the Euros!
