Belfast Ireland April 13th

Woke up at the b&b in Stranraer and dad was already gone, he left earlier in the morning to take the rental car back to a town about an hour away. So me and mom had breakfast together and then checked out but left our bags because the owner said we could leave them till 12. Which was great because it was 10am, dad wasn't gonna be back till at least 12:30, and the ferry for Ireland only left at 3:30. So if we wouldn't have been able to leave the luggage even for a little which we did we would have been in trouble. 

So we walked downtown to go "treasure hunting" and what that is in lori's dictionary is we go to antique stores, pawn shops, museums and salvation army's looking for treasures. Oh it's so much fun. Ya'll are missing out for sure. We ended up finding Lori a treasure, it's a crown glass bowl, and robin was quite ecstatic because with the weight of it, most likely it's gonna throw them over the luggage weight and because of that 1 item they might have to pay the extra fee.. when robin saw her treasure he rolled his eyes just like I did. 

When dad got back to town we met him at a pub a few doors down from the b&b with all our luggage. We had about 2 hours to kill so we stayed in the pub and played pool, darts and cards. Oh and of course we had a few drinks. 

We got on the ferry at 3:30 and left for Ireland. Oh my god was it POSH! So posh! There was a restaurant, bar, arcade, movie theatre, and a mini shopping centre on this ferry! It was absolutely massive! It didn't feel like a ferry, it felt like a cruise ship. I have photos but they aren't even half of what we experienced. 

When we arrived in Belfast Ireland we got a cab to the b&b and checked in. You would swear our room is at the top of the Eiffel Tower here. More than 45 stairs  just to get in the room. But the place is nice and beds are comfy so it could be worse. 

We got in at about 7 ish and ate on the ferry, so we stayed in for the rest of the night and just relaxed.
