leaving Ireland

Yesterday we were in Northern Ireland with a lunch stop and walking tour of Derry/Londonderry.  Our night was spent in Ballygally Castle.  Our castle/hotel didn't have WiFi so I am using our coach WiFi for this posting.

Right now we are waiting in line to drive onto our ferry taking us to Scotland where we will stay for the remainder of our trip.

I must add a bit more about the roadways we have been traveling along.  Those narrow and winding roads have no shoulders and often there is a vertical rock wall straight up from the edge of pavement or a hedge taller than the coach also trimmed up vertical from the edge of the pavement and that is on both sides.

Signs that in the US say yield here they are the same triangle shape but say "give way".  As we leave a village there is a sign that reads "haste ye back".
