Traveling on through the North and Giant's causeway

This is the typical view as we traveled though.


You can see the mountains in the back. There are a lot of brick and stone buildings.





A pretty waterfall




Looking on the town along the Giant's causeway coast. This is along the most Northern part of Ireland.



We walked down to the area called the Giant's causeway and this is the view from across.

Here in this area is a "mass of 37,000 mostly hexagonal pillars of volcanic basalt, clustered like a giant honeycomb and extending hundreds of yards into the sea. Ledgend has it this causeway was created 60 million years ago, when boiling lava, erupting from and underground fissure that stretched from Northern Ireland to the Scottish coast, crystalized as it burst into the sea, and formed according to the same natural principal that structures a honeycomb." Or it can be the giant stepping stones for the giant Finn McCool for his quest across to Scotland to his love. The rest of the story is : there was a fight for her and the giant picked up a chunk of earth and flung it at Scotland.  Where is landed created Lough Neagh (lake) and the chunk created the Isle of Man.  Sounds good to me, but there is always more to the story!

You can see in all these how hexagonal the shapes are.  Just amazing....

On our way out of the area to find a place to sleep and eat.  Just a beautiful area wherever you look.:) cheerio. please leave me a comment so I know there is someone out there.
