Here we are in front of the wall separating the Protestant and Catholic neighborhoods. The wall is 45 ft tall and 3.3 miles. There are gates at all 3 access points to the between the neighborhoods. The gates still clost at 9 every night. The wall was built in 1970 when the problems began. The police kept having to the build the wall higher and higher to make it hard for each side to throw bombs over the fence at the other neighborhood. Even with the peace, there were signs of damage from a bottle bomp just to the right of us from only 2 years ago!
