Belfast today! Laura's grandma lives just outside Belfast, in Lisburn. We drove an hour-ish to her house, picking up Laura's uni friends along the way. Laura and her friends gave me a tour of Belfast. Queen's University is gorgeous. It's funny how we often forget the beauty and charm of a place when its part of our quotidian life. The girls were surprised at how lovely I found Belfast but as a tourist, Queen's campus and the city of Belfast are much easier to aesthetically appreciate. Belfast struck me as an approachable city. It's bustling but walkable. Cafes and shops line the cobblestone streets. Lovely place to spend the afternoon!
We went to a popular Queen's favorite, Lavery's, at night. We ran into all the girls' friends from university and had a great time.
It's been wonderful relaxing at Laura's house and I'll miss the homecooking and Irish banter with her parents but I'm excited for London tomorrow!
