June 19, 2009: PORTRUSH to DUBLIN.
Today, our last travel day, we drive from Portrush & return to Dublin. Being our longest drive of this trip, we have limited time to stop. We stopped in Belfast for lunch & to see the sites. Later, we stopped at the old monastic site, Monasterboice to see some more old relics from Irelands long ago past.

Our first "photo op" in Belfast.
The Queen's University Student Union building to make a "Pit Stop".
I hope the Queen doesn't mind if we use her "Loo"!

Monasterboice.
A monastery was established her in the 6th Century. The oldest 10th Century monuments here are the three high crosses & the tower.
June 19, 2009: Ireland in 14 wonderful days!
Our last bus ride brought as back to the Harding Hotel in Dublin. After moving our luggage & settling into our rooms, we gathered in the lobby & went to have our last group meal. 14 days previous, we had a similar group meal. Our first. At that time we were strangers. At this last meal, I was aware that we were no longer strangers. It's been a wonderful journey with wonderful touring companions. Like everyone else here, I had to leave for home. I'll miss you all.
