Our street with our flat |

Looking downtown from our street |
A week in this beautiful country of
Ireland! We are learning lots, like how to dodge vacated cars (they
don't park they just get out) and maneuver crowded streets and how
difficult opening a bank account is. We ventured downtown and through
the busy, narrow streets of Belfast four times before we had the
right combination of paperwork and people that would allow us to
deposit and hopefully retrieve money from the bank. On failed trip
three I wasn't quite as Canadian as I had been on one and two, mind
you rules are tools or so we were told. The only problem was the
rules changed depending on who we spoke with. But all is good we have
received a warm, friendly welcome everywhere we have been. Even the
weather has been welcoming.The sun has shone on every day we have
been here with a few rain showers to go with it but on the whole very
pleasant. The land is green and spring flowers brighten the yards.

Lagan River |
We walked along the Lagan river today
at Shaw's bridge.Such a beautiful place. As you look at the pictures
imagine a sweet flowery smell in the fresh air and the chitter and
chirping of birds.
