Shopping and lunch
We left Deirdre back in the city Centre, where our lovely teachers let us off for some free time to get something to eat and go for a spot of shopping. The last stop of the day was the Holiday Inn Hotel.
We checked into our rooms and got ready for dinner. The menu for dinner included three courses, and the food was served buffet-style. Most people got chicken curry and rice followed by some chocolate fudge cake! We all finished off the night with a little singsong.
In the morning, we got breakfast, where we filled ourselves up with another delicious buffet of treats before then heading to the Ulster Museum. This museum was new and modern, and we all enjoyed getting to see the art gallery and the old Army uniforms in the section covering the Troubles. We finished off the tour in the gift shop where we bought some souvenirs to bring home.
Last but not least, we went to the old Crumlin gaol, which was remarkably interesting. We got an insight into the life of a prisoner in the early 1900s. The cells we visited were virtually untouched since they were last used, and the architecture of the gaol was something to remember!
