Last Day

Hello Everybody!
Today was our last day in northern ireland and was designated as a free day to do some touristy things as well as shopping. We slept in and then went to see the film "The wind shakes the barley". It was about the beginning of the Irish Republican Army and the beginning of the Irish Free State process. It was a very good film which among many things taught that violence only begets violence. After the film we went shopping in the center city of Belfast for souvenirs etc. Then we met Gareth Higgins for dinner and debriefing of our experience. Gareth has been very inspiring about the peace process in N.I. and we have learned many important lessons from him. That is about it for today. It has been an extremely fun as well as educational time for all of us here in Northern Ireland. We will be home soon to tell you all about it I am sure! Peace and blessings to you all.
