Derry (Londonderry)

On the train, our first train ride, and it took us along the coast. It was comfortable and the scenery enjoyable. We arrived at dusk and decided a taxi would be prudent as we didn't know the area and we were quickly at our B&B. Time to clean up and plan for tomorrow. Derry is a 400 year old walled city and the entire wall is still intact. We had breakfast and met Thomas, the owner, and had some great conversation. Wish we could have visited with him longer as he is a hiker and we had much to share with one another. We walked the entire wall and then found a cafe for a bite to eat before taking the train to Belfast and the bus to Dublin.
At our Holiday Inn Express ( yes, our last night in an airport corporate hotel ) we bathed and readied our bags for the flight home.
