Day 90 | August 24

Wow, 90 day mark. This has really flown by. Today we did a black cab tour of Belfast and covered a lot of the political history of Northern Ireland. I thought this was a subject that I was pretty well versed in but I had no idea how little I actually knew. I certainly had no idea that to this day portions of the city are divided into Catholic and Protestant by these huge walls that get locked every night. It was a real eye opener. In the afternoon I had to do some work so I headed back to Established Coffee which I’d become an immediate fan of. In attempting to find my parents I ended up at The Dirty Onion which is a really nice beer garden and the gorgeous weather made it a perfect place to hangout for a pint.Oh, also worth noting that this place is set around the remnants of the oldest building in Belfast.  In the evening we went to dinner at Holohan’s which is in an old barge moored on the river and serves excellent food.
