Notes From A Spinning Planet—Ireland - Plot & Excerpts
Okay, I know American fast food is a huge cop-out, but this enables us to catch the nine o’clock open-bus tour. The open bus is a big red double-decker deal with an open place to sit on top. Okay, it’s a little unsettling, since I’ve heard of bombs going off in these. But that was most recently in London and not even related to the RIRA. And I seriously doubt it will happen here today. The tour takes about an hour and gives us a bit more of an overview of the city than what Sid gave us yesterday. But afterward I want to get a better look at Belfast Castle, and Ryan wants to look at the shipyards. He informs me that the Titanic was made here. “The movie?” I say, instantly realizing how stupid that sounds. But he just laughs. “They had to make the boat first, Maddie. The movie came later.” So we part ways. And I have to say I’m relieved to have some time to myself today. The past few days have been jam-packed and somewhat stressful for me. I mean, it’s been really interesting too, but I’m ready for a mental-health break.
