Day 20: Belfast & Scotland - 5th country of trip!

Today I woke up in Northern Ireland and went to bed in Scotland! 

I was SO exited  to go to the Titanic Exhibition. After a full Irish, delicious breakfast, we hurried to Belfast, to the Titanic museum πŸ›³. 

When we got there, I noticed that the museum was shaped like 4 fronts of a ship! We had a little look around while daddy got the audio guides. When we were all ready, one of the staff told us a few facts about the Titanic (his name was Rob). For instance, he showed us where the Titanic last touched dry land.

When we were properly inside the museum, we learnt that the Titanic was the biggest ship ever built-I wonder how big it was in real life to see it. Also, the Titanic carried 2238 people. We listened to the audio guide which told us about how Belfast became a huge shipbuilding city (biggest in the world) and also we went on an interesting ride in a cable car which took us round some exhibits of people working their hearts off to build the Titanic. There was a cinema showing us about film divers made about the wreck of the Titanic, 4000m below the surface...we saw pots, pans, spoons and other things they used on the Titanic.
We were in there nearly 3 hours and we didn't want to leave because it was so interesting. But we had to.
So the journey to Scotland started and we drove to the harbour to board the huge ferry.
It took 2 and a half hours to get to get to our 5th country on this trip! Scotland!
We drove to Ayr, to a guesthouse then found our rooms. We were feeling hungry so we went to a restaurant that was originally a church!

The day was great...now we are in SCOTLAND!πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ˜€πŸ’ͺ🏻
