Back online after few days Intenet mostly available but didn’t access for a few days(withdrawls). Will upload a number of days notes from Ireland now

Set off from Dan and Jeanette’s after a very hearty cooked breakfast. Drove to Stranraer to board the ferry arriving at 12noon and ferry due to begin boarding at 12.30pm.

We had to wait in the holding area until 1.15pm then we boarded in a very organised and orderly fashion. We booked the premium fare which gave us access to the premier lounge where complimentary tea coffee, juices and snacks were available.

We were able to order lunch which was very nice. I had internet access so was able to catch up on email banking etc while we made the 1hour 50 minute journey to Belfast.

We arrived in Belfast and we had disembarked before 5pm and set of in a northerly direction after a driving through Belfast city centre for a look. We found a very nice hotel at Ballymena no dinner needed after latish lunch on board.

We turned in early as has become the usual for us. Heading to Giants Causway tomorrow, our driver is holding up well.
