So we ended up lounging around in our adorable B&B for a while. Totally got caught up watching Sex in the City the Movie. I KNOW! Anyway, we didn't head out for dinner until a quarter to ten. In my defense, I kept Emily aware of the time every half hour starting at 7pm because I knew it was a weeknight and likely most places closed earlyish.
We ended up calling a taxi and this guy was awesome sauce. We totally got an impromptu tour of the city since he drove us around to a bunch of good eateries he knew so we could see if they were open. They weren't.
We also got some history of what they call "The Troubles" a.k.a. people bombing the shit out of each other. It was interesting. He was really entertaining though, and we ended up at some Turkish Kebab place for takeaway. We befriended the Turkish guys there and after hearing of our haphazard travel plans they offered us a job if we needed it. Funny sauce!
It seemed, though, that no matter who we talked to everyone told us that Belfast was "a shithole". Seems they can agree upon something.
That was pretty much it for Belfast. We had a lovely breakfast this morning and then collected our clothes from the laundrette we dropped them at yesterday. Now we are waiting for our bus to Dublin.
Hopefully we can get into the Guinness tour today and tomorrow, well, we all know what that is.
WOOT WOOT!
Bye bye bye!
