Day 9 – May 24, 2010 – Take Time to Smell the Flowers

"God gave us memory so that we might have roses in December." -James M. Barrie

We’ve been on a tight schedule throughout the majority of this trip. It has been difficult at times, but we have covered a lot of ground. We are only in Belfast for one night. The thought was slightly discouraging at first. Belfast is a city that you want to spend extra time in. Fortunately and unfortunately, we are heading to Scotland tomorrow. Yet, we still managed to take some time to see, smell, and taste Belfast. We visited the botanical gardens, hung out at Queens College, and ate soda bread at a local restaurant. Although it hasn’t been much time, I feel like we’ve made the most of the time given to us. That’s what truly counts.
