Touring Ireland


 
My tour guiding course continues, this time with a trip down the Ards Peninsula and to Mount Stewart (above). We had a tour of the house, home to Lord and Lady Londonderry for many years and now owned by the national trust.  



The head gardener also gave us a tour of the amazing garden and I saw giant shamrock, the likes of which I've never seen before.
 
I also did my first ever paid tour recently - a one hour coach tour of Belfast - in Spanish! It took a lot of preparation and not a little help from my mother but I got through it without any major disasters and am really quite proud of myself. The tour ended at the new Titanic Belfast museum, below.

  1. Enjoying the service of Odyssey - Streaming - Radio is so easy.
    Often, long term schedules with a bit of breathing room work best.
    So, a custom direct application and route tracking can make it
    easier to you cut fuel cost, save visit time and wholesome delivery.

  2. Wallace explained the importance of nature by explaining the relationship between the Man and Nature.
    Of course, when it comes to song and ordered modulations and reinventions, Christina
    Aguilera and Britney Spears should be believed. There are many famous author books published
    on poems.
