The titanic…..

Belfast is where the titanic was built, thus they have an amazing museum there . Our grandson Talon is currently obsessed with it. Hope he is still obsessed by the time we get home

Sadly we did only have an hour to see the multimedia presentation. They went through all the aspects of building it, details about the launch. And the all the way to the iceberg, the rescue and even the actual voices of the survivors. There was even one guy talking about snow ball fights after the iceberg hit the ship. There clearly was a period of time before they realized the seriousness of the situation

The site it was launched

We are traveling through Northern Ireland with Gwen, a friend from med school.

We are starting a three day hike along the very northern coast of Northern Ireland. Today we will hike around Rathlin island which is where one goes to see the puffins, however it is not currently their season. Apparently it has long been a mystery of where they winter. Only recently with the help of geolocators, they have discovered that they spend the winter out at sea in the waves ???

Not much time to ✍️
