The weather stayed pretty consistent throughout the week. Last week was much better, with sunshine everyday and the temperatures were reaching high 60s to almost 70 degrees. According to the locals, that kind of weather is typical of the summer season. This week the high was 55 degrees, no higher, but it dipped down to 37 degrees being the lowest temperature on April 17.
I saw the typical animals in Belfast, mostly pigeons and seagulls. I see these almost every day whether I am looking out the window of my flat/accomodation, or I am walking outside. They love roaming around on the footpaths (sidewalks) and eating any and every crumb they can find off of the ground. In Northern Ireland, and especially in Ireland, the seagulls are actually known for stealing food from people. Thankfully, that hasn't happened to me yet, but I have almost gotten hit by a flying pigeon a few times.
