Comic Con, Belfast 2014 - Day 2 & beyond

Day 2 was a dryer day than Day 1. I got some photographs while waiting to go inside.

























I got to meet Chris Barrie who was Rimmer in Red Dwarf :) I had been practicing my Rimmer salute ALL morning and he laughed and said it was the best Rimmer salute he had seen.


When we got back to the hotel, I noticed the hotel had left me a gift! 

I was really tired so I changed into my jammies and Bunny took photographs of my haul. 





I got a lie-in the morning we had to leave, but I didn't want to go.

I took a selfie during my stay in the Europa Hotel, our hotel room overlooked two famous bars in Belfast. Robinson's bar on the left and The Crown Bar on the right.

Bunny took this final photo of my first holiday, me sitting in a rucksack at the bus station waiting to back to Armagh. 


Total Distance Travelled during holiday (from Armagh):  103 miles

Balloon Race!

I went to the Armagh Planetarium, they had a balloon race :) While I waited for the balloon race to start, we walked around the Planetarium. I dressed up as Darth Vader! I left my lightsaber at home as I was scared of loosing it.

I saw a baby T-Rex! 

I got a photograph with the baby T-Rex! Rexy nuzzled my paw! I was a bit scared but Bunny said I would be safe.

I'm Darth Cyberman!

I had to wait for the Balloon Race, I coloured in a dinosaur! :) Bunny helped because I didn't want to get any colour on my fur or on my costume.

After colouring in, I read a book :) I like reading books, they are fun.

I tried to use the force to lift the 22 stone meteorite! But I'm only a little Darth Vader, I did manage to move it a bit!


Then it was time for the Balloon Race! I got given a lovely orange balloon :) Bunny was helping me hold it as we had to let them go at the one time.

Close up of the ticket on the balloon.

 And then the balloons were released! Mine was in there somewhere!

I met an Alien they were from Planet Aliens!

Darth Lion unmasked!

I spent some of my pocket money! :) I got an agate keyring for one of the travelling bags and a grow your own crystal kit. We haven't started growing them yet, but we will soon and then we will do updates on the progress of the crystals.

Iron Age Celt (Navan Centre)

This morning we visited the Navan Centre. I dressed up as an Iron Age Celt :) Below are photographs before leaving to go on the adventure.



We had some time to wait before the Living History started so we had a walk around the self-guided tour.  I got earphones too, but I ended up giving them to Bunny to carry for me. Below the photos that Bunny took of me during the self guided tour.  See the sticker on my tunic? That means that I can come and go and see the attractions in the centre in any order. 

First I looked through the lens to see close up of Willow, what it looks like under a microscope.


I wanted to sit on top beside the cat, but Bunny said she didn't think I would be allowed. So instead, I sat on the ground.

Then I sat in front of the bucket in this part of the exhibit.  It looks like the man is talking to me :) It's not a real man.


They had books my size :) I read this one, it was called The Children of Lir. I love to read books. 

Afterwards we still had some time before the Living History started. Bunny sat down and got some coffee to drink.  I sat in the window and looked out and watched people walk past. 

It wasn't long before it was time to go to see the Living History.  The man who was an Iron Age Celt, walked by saying hello to everyone. He took one look at me and said "That's a funny looking cat!" They thought Bunny had come to trade because of her big bag. *giggles* It was funny, then they invited us into their home. They told me, Bunny and the other people there how their home was built and how they lived.  They asked us where we all were from, they were glad there was no-one from Connaught, because they said they didn't like Connaught people. They were happy to hear that we were from Ulster :) Then they invited us outside and showed us their weapons :) They looked scary but it was okay, Bunny held my paw and told me I would be safe. 

I got some goodies with my pocket money :) A new bracelet and a patch for my travelling bag. 


Afterwards we walked to the Navan Fort for a surprise that we are planning for tomorrow. So make sure you check back tomorrow! :) 

Distance Travelled today (from Armagh): 5 miles
