After a long evening in the bar of The Crosskeys Inn we are a little dull this morning, but much wiser. We understand the complexity of thatching a pub roof and how many pints of Guinness you can have without feeling a little dull the next day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We make the Hymer ready before driving out of the carpark for Antrim on the northern shore of Lough Neagh. We are looking for a relaxing morning exploring Antrim, then spend some time this afternoon planning our day in Belfast tomorrow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First problem is finding a car-park without a height barrier. All the free parking close to town has a barrier, but the library car-park at \u20ac.50p seemed reasonable.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
