4:37 p.m. - 2010-04-26 Trinity College was brilliant as usual. It is where the Book of Kells resides, along with many other ancient, fascinating books. The stacks of books are---simply mouthwatering! Imagine having the space to house all of those books! (I am talking about the long hall...no photos allowed, though...) The buildings are very peaceful and solid. We were trying to get out of the campus but ended up at a locked gate. Forch, I have no pride and hit the right note to get the guards to unlock the gate and let us out. Yay, me! (It was along the line of "I should have listened to my husband...") This is a typical Fifi pic. Note that I tend to focus on the grave and serious...
I'll tell you all though for certain, SUCH delicious food!!!! In Omagh we did not take any pics either. It was really mostly Biba at a play park. And we chatted away with other parents. Learned tonnes! We saw snow on the highest hilltops on our way to Portballantrae. Oh, and Biba got carsick. Poor girl. We always forget. When we got to Port B, we were all eager to get down to the beach. And a play park for Biba. I did notice that the accents in the North seem much more varied. Some even sounded just like Scotland! I'll just put up some pics of just Port B and the gorgeous scenery. That was our car, outside of the place where we stayed. Right on the harbour...I kept calling the restaurant "The Blowhole" by mistake. This is too far away to see the new modern McCastle but the views are stunning! This is that closer, but unforch, fuzzy... Those are sea foam balls washing up on the shore. The harbour... Secret kayak dudes...
Rocks and sea... Next up will be Dunluce and the Giant's Causeway. 4 comments
