We chose the shortest route possible to get to Northern Ireland because Jenny has suffered bad seasickness in the past and also we didn't want Poppy our Westie to spend too long in the motorhome. Our first trip to Northern Ireland for both of us. We took a short journey to Curran Caravan Park just a few minutes from the ferry terminal.

*Transderm Scōp* is your friend if you suffer from motion sickness. I get really nauseated in cars and vans, but with Transderm scōp {from doctor} I could travel literally hours in a van , work a full day, then be a passenger to Fishguard for the night ferry {Rough to moderate} to Rosslare, collect a large item , then get back on same ferry and be a passenger in a van for hours...no nausea at all! {I can feel motion sick travelling into town on a bus}

It was interesting to see the Cairnryan Ferry Terminal. When I lived in that area, the ferries to Larne sailed from Stranraer. That was a while ago. There was a ship breaking yard at Cairnryan and I remember that they broke the old Ark Royal there. Changed days. I hope that you have an enjoyable time in Northern Ireland. Take care.

@Oakleaf700 Год назад

Princess Victoria Ro~ro ferry left from there {Stranraer} on her tragic journey in 1953. 🙏 It is a tragedy not many people know about nowadays. RIP all those who were lost that day. {Some interesting , but deeply sad coverage with survivors are on an Irish radio programme here on You Tube}

Lovely video and I get Jenny’s trepidation. We, like you have dogs. The only thing that worries us is the fact that we have relations in Southern Ireland and we are not sure if they need anything? If you think about it if you live near the border you maybe be crossing over several ones with your pet and surely you can not keep producing documentation. Perhaps our vet could advise us. Guy.

@patsmyth3941 Год назад

Arrival by ferry to Belfast is a much better route in terms of a much newer Ferry and on board facilities. The Titanic Centre should not be missed or the new modern city. A suggested route to the Dark Hedge’is along the coast road through Carrickfergus with its castle then Carnlough , Ballycastle etc as this is one of the most scenic routes in Europe. I hope you enjoy Northern Ireland and that it’s beautiful coast roads , beaches , walks will be experienced. On the way back I would stay at Carnfunock country park in Larne , other sites that are a must are Castleward , Juniper Hill , Portstewart and Woodcroft in Newcastle. I hope you enjoy your visit.

Really sorry to hear that Jenny was unwell. Hoppe she is feeling better now. The ferries from Cairnryan can be quite costly. Stenaline is often seen as the better. Although it arrives to Belfast port as I'm sure you know. Did you visit the Antrim Lough Neagh caravan and motorhome site? Hope you both enjoyed your travels here. Stay safe and drive carefully. I would be on that A75 frequantly. Often a very nice drive. I know of a man who brings dog in from Slovacia to to the Republic, Then crosses the invisible border to bring and sell the animals in the north, he then bring the animals into the UK mainland via P&O/Stena. The hazard check are the only checks which have been in place for many years now. The best way to help aviod sea sickness is to sit as close to the centre of a ship. Back to front and on lower decs. There is the near centre point so less rolling no matter how bad the weather.

Poppy had to stay in the Motorhome for the crossing, in her crate.

Did you need to produce a passport at the port. I am assuming that you don't as your still in the uk

@BobEarnshawMoHo 7 месяцев назад

Yes Northern Ireland is part of the UK, just like England, Wales and Scotland, no passport required.

Are you going to get some pet passports while you are in NI?

@BobEarnshawMoHo Год назад

No, we would need an Animal Health Certificate to do that. We would also have to come back to Northern Ireland or go to an EU vet to get the jabs renewed.

@antonybeaumont2697 Год назад

@@BobEarnshawMoHo Go to slaws adventures and see how they did it with their dogs! Thought you said you didn't need a health certificate? You can go to a certain vets in NI and they do pet passports and you don't need to go back through NI for future trips.

Don’t be saying your not a Royalist in NI. God Save the King.

@BobEarnshawMoHo Год назад

You not have noticed but there are other communities in Northern Ireland. It would be disingenuous of me to say I'm a fan of monarchy. Sad she's gone, and amazed at her service.
