... seen any men with guns, we said no and he said how do you know and pulled down the car's sun visor to show us his gun! (he also called the pope a nazi so he was a bit strange) but there's obviously still alot of tension there, our next stop was on the side of a road between two long 10m(ish) high walls that run right through the city and out into the mountains - the peace wall to keep the protestant and catholic neighbourhoods seperated. there was a sculpture set into the wall with ...
