Belfast

Ken should be writing this one! We visited the Titanic Exhibition Centre, left after about 4 hours but Ken could've stayed all day. Massive purpose built building. Made to be the height and bow shape of the Titanic. Five stories high!

We also toured the Guiness factory - seven stories high!! The interior of one of the buildings has been rebuilt into the shape of a Guiness pint glass and if it was filled, could hold 14.3 million pints!!

We toured the city on the hop on hop off bus. Part of the tour was driving up and down Shankhill and Falls roads, sites of 'The Troubles' and still very much divided.
