Day 6 6/17/19 Belfast, Northern Ireland

Today we headed off the boat by 9:45 and caught the bus from the ship into Belfast. The bus dropped us off at the city hall so we did a quick tour. We decided to walk the city and got a little turned around but made it to the Victoria square to shop then Castle Court shopping center. We saw the Belfast Cathedral and passed the Custom house on our way to the Titanic museum.  So much information and history since the Titanic was made in Belfast. After the museum we made it back on the bus just as it was starting to pour rain.  Cal on the ship to enjoy dinner, Michael Jackson name that tune and the show Tengo Buenes Aires.

Today we had to report our passports at 8:20 so we ate in the dinning room and then worked out.  We tried to walk the ship but it was to cold and windy!  At 10:30 we reported to Izumi to learn how to make sushi and we got to eat what we made.  We enjoyed learning about our next 4 stops at 2:15 and afterwards headed to the solarium by the pool until our picture viewing at 4:00. The pictures were amazing but extremely pricy so we may not purchase them.  Dinner was in the main dining room at 6:00 and 9:00 was a tango dancing show.
