Belfast 29.10.2012

We headed back to the Titanic Experience, in the hope of getting tickets - Woohoo!! Tickets for 1.40. With a couple of hours to spare we decided to find the Belfast Barge, which just happened to be not too far away. Whilst walking we came across "Elliott's" Costume hire, people were actually queued around the corner (in the rain) to get the costumes for Halloween !! Anyway, quite an interesting little museum, lots on the history of Belfast. Back to the Titanic Experience!! While waiting to enter the exhibition there were people in costumes for Halloween, some very interesting !! The exhibition was definitely worth the wait - again lots of history on the Belfast area and the Dock Yards as well as information on staff and passengers of the Titanic. One story tells that all except for 2 people boarded the Titanic as expected - these were 2 fireman, who missed the ship because they were drinking in the pub !! How lucky were they!! We then drove to Armagh before heading back to the B & B
