This past Saturday a couple friends and I woke up before the sun and got on a train to Belfast. Irish Rail has fair student prices. =) Belfast is an awesome city nestled in Northern Ireland (which is part of the UK). It was tons of fun and by the end of the day we were all overly exhausted to the point of random giggles the whole train ride home at 10 o'clock at night.
Some highlights from the trip:
Victoria Square: An amazing mall with a stupendous view at the very top
St. George's Market: typical farmers style market, indoor. Also included random crafty things. So much fun. I was sad I couldn't bring home any seafood. The price was amazing but I don't think the fish would have enjoyed the 2 hour train ride.
Bus tour: It was ok. Problem with the tour was that part of the city was closed down due to a parade, unfortunately. I was still able to learn some about the city. So yay!
Leaning tower of Belfast: aka wee Ben. It's sinking into the river...

Titanic Museum: Fantastic, as expected. Titanic love <3.
Titanic Studios: We didn't go in. but, I saw it!!! It is where some of Games of Thrones was filmed!!!!

Hashtag mania: There was hash tagging nonstop. It was semi ridiculous. Video that started it all can be seen below...
Here are some pictures =). I am lucky to have friends who take lots of pictures that I can steal for my posts. Thanks Ben, Colleen, and Gabby!!!
And, here is the video that left (mainly) Ben on a hash tagging rampage all day long. Seriously though, this video is kind of hilarious.
In conclusion, I'd recommend Belfast to anyone. It was well worth the visit.
Honestly, I am most excited for this upcoming weekend!!! I'm going to London!!!! Can't wait. =D
Note to self:
Don't overfill bread pan with banana bread then leave to do laundry.
*Kieran may need some serious therapy after what she endured today all on her own. I'm proud of her.
Alas, there's the finished product. it looks a little sketch but it was the most delicious banana bread I ever made. Definitely worth the near crisis situation in the kitchen.
