Today started out early. We had to be at the Dublin Connolly train station by 7:10am to catch the train to Belfast. We had arranged a packaged tour that included a train ride to Belfast, a coach tour up the Antrim Coast stopping at a couple of castles, the Giant's Causeway and the Carrick-a-rede rope bridge. It rained most of the day along with being cold and windy. But the sights were good and the tour guide was funny, so it was still a good trip. After getting back to Belfast we checked into Hotel Europa and then found dinner at a nice Italian restaurant called Speranza.
