a view from the bus…and this was only the beginning of the afternoon! I gather a million people must have been there today (well, it says that over 500,000 were expected)
I really had to laugh when I discovered that the Old Sails I was meant to see were actually brand new Tall Ships! I crossed England on a misunderstanding…Typical, shall you say!
Well, I don’t regret it a minute because they are wonderful to watch and all Ireland seems to have been in agreement with me on this. I even saw Hitchcock’s Life Boat in the gardens of the City Hall and met, as usual, some wonderful people everywhere.
I almost lost my hotel key and was rescued by a charming family who found it and gave it back to me, and a nice gentleman did the same with my hair bow which had decided to sail away from me.
The food market was a lot of fun thanks to a team of irresistible transvestite for one day who not only sold their food but also their act!
Anyhow, I let you enjoy the sight of these new nevertheless magnificent tall ships
this is how I discovered my mistake…;-)

a memorial site…getting ready for the Parade!
Ach, the Irish can’t help it…! I was actually marvelling that God was not in sight anywhere…!Ach, the Irish can’t help it…!one of Belfast’s new faces with this Peace Angel…may it look over this lovely city and its citizens!water had suddenly a funny colour….one of the most absurd buildings I ever saw….great view from there I hope…oldest pub in town.I was wondering about its meaning but that’s just the largest UK trade uniona memorial to Victoria’s beloved AlbertCharming alley into what used to be the heart of Belfast press…Coco’s full at 8 but empty at 9…Belfasters breakfast and dine early…;-)
