Belfast Tall Ships 2009
« on: August 16, 2009 »

I was out on Belfast Lough as the Tall Ships were leaving. Unfortunately the traffic was so bad that we were fairly late and missed a good few of them.

There was a huge swell and dark skies so the photos weren't great.

Wow nice pictures. I got them books at the tall ships called, scenic ireland, by, Chris Hill. They cost me £70 but the pictures are out of this world, im very happy with the books. Each book is a province, Ulster, Connaught, Leinster, Munter. They will help my plan my route along the cost.
