On Thursday, August 31 we meet the McCarol's for brunch at this little store that had a food court in the back. One of the things I love about Northern Ireland is their love of cherry scones! I love the scones. Love. Love. Love. LOVE them! Add some jam and cream - it's amazing!
After brunch we went and said hello to Brandon at his key shop in Belfast. And just like the last time I was there, I remembered this street because of the colored doors. Ireland is known for their colored doors and this is the only time I saw them.
For lunch we went to a restaurant close to Gordon's house called Ivan Hill and then we ventured to Greencastle in County Down. Greeencastle was built in the 13th century. Greencastle was likely built by Hugh de Lacy along with the Carlingford Castle (I went to Carlingford Castle in 2011), to guard the narrow entry channel to the Lough. The country side around the castle is what you expect to see in Ireland - 1,000's different shades of green, crystal clear water, and puffy white clouds.
After Greencastle we had dinner with the Graham's at The Galley and then they came back to the condo for tea and cookies. As always it was a great evening and wonderful fellowship.
