The city surprised us with its diversity and charm as we strolled through the streets and soaked up the atmosphere. A walk around the city took us to various sights such as the Grand Opera House, the famous Titanic Museum and H&amp;W&#8217;s Samson and Goliath cranes. After an eventful day, we continued our journey and crossed the border into Ireland, the third Celtic country, where we headed for the first campsite of our trip.    <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9dbf388 gallery-spacing-custom elementor-widget elementor-widget-image-gallery\" data-id=\"9dbf388\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image-gallery.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image-gallery\">\n\t\t\t<div id='gallery-4' class='gallery galleryid-10663 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-full'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=\"9dbf388\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"Belfast Castle\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MTA2NDEsInVybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC9kZXN0YXJ5LmNvbVwvd3AtY29udGVudFwvdXBsb2Fkc1wvMjAyNFwvMDRcL2xvZ2Jvb2tfY2VsdGljX3RyaXAtMjctc2NhbGVkLmpwZyIsInNsaWRlc2hvdyI6IjlkYmYzODgifQ%3D%3D\" href='https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/logbook_celtic_trip-27-scaled.jpg'><img width=\"2048\" height=\"2560\" src=\"https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/logbook_celtic_trip-27-scaled.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"Belfast Castle\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-4-10641\" decoding=\"async\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-4-10641'>\n\t\t\t\tBelfast Castle\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=\"9dbf388\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"Grand Opera House\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MTA2NDMsInVybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC9kZXN0YXJ5LmNvbVwvd3AtY29udGVudFwvdXBsb2Fkc1wvMjAyNFwvMDRcL2xvZ2Jvb2tfY2VsdGljX3RyaXAtMjgtc2NhbGVkLmpwZyIsInNsaWRlc2hvdyI6IjlkYmYzODgifQ%3D%3D\" href='https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/logbook_celtic_trip-28-scaled.jpg'><img width=\"2048\" height=\"2560\" src=\"https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/logbook_celtic_trip-28-scaled.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"Grand Opera House\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-4-10643\" decoding=\"async\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-4-10643'>\n\t\t\t\tGrand Opera House\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=\"9dbf388\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"H&amp;W cranes Samson and Goliath\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MTA2NDUsInVybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC9kZXN0YXJ5LmNvbVwvd3AtY29udGVudFwvdXBsb2Fkc1wvMjAyNFwvMDRcL2xvZ2Jvb2tfY2VsdGljX3RyaXAtMjktc2NhbGVkLmpwZyIsInNsaWRlc2hvdyI6IjlkYmYzODgifQ%3D%3D\" href='https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/logbook_celtic_trip-29-scaled.jpg'><img width=\"2048\" height=\"2560\" src=\"https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/logbook_celtic_trip-29-scaled.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"H&amp;W cranes Samson and Goliath\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-4-10645\" decoding=\"async\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-4-10645'>\n\t\t\t\tH&#038;W cranes Samson and Goliath\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3f6bdd9 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"3f6bdd9\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2454f1e elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"2454f1e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Day 9: From Jameson to Temple Bar<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-67e9a4f elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"67e9a4f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The day began with a balancing act over several puddles on the way to the bus station in <a href=\"https:\/\/destary.com\/en\/travel-guides\/discover-dublin-the-vibrant-capital-of-ireland\/\">Dublin<\/a>.
