Here we are...arriving in Larne and heading to Belfast City.
We visited the brand new 'Titanic Experience' which opened in Belfast on 31st March 2012. You need the whole day to get through it all. The weather in Belfast was bright and sunny - a lovely 15C.
Following on from Belfast, the coach headed down to Dublin - a 2 and a half hour drive.
