Belfast ended up being a lot of fun, but I think I can say that I enjoyed Dublin more.  The tension that you can feel in Belfast from the conflict is a little overwhelming...definitely not an area I would want to grow up in.  I already miss the Ireland seminar so much.  The group of people was a lot of fun, our professor and TAs were amazing, and I just had a great experience.
I arrived safely in London yesterday, and we checked into our hotel that we stay at until we find a flat.  I'm starting that search tomorrow, so I will report back, and hopefully be able to show off pictures of where I live.  Even though I am in the city of London, I don't feel it yet.  Maybe it's because I'm staying in a hotel for the time being, or that classes haven't started, but I just don't feel like I'm really here yet.
Hopefully once classes start, and I have a flat, and I know my way around the area I live in, I will really feel at home here in London.
And I plan on posting some pictures from Ireland soon :)
