The North Coast

From Belfast we drove (and when I say 'we' drove, I mean it!) to the North Coast, called the Antrium Coast, toward the Giant's Causway. We didn't end up getting to the Giant's Causway until dusk, so I don't have any pictures of it, but the drive along the way was beautiful. It was also, of course, a wee bit rainy and cloudy on the way...

No, I do not need my eyes checked. It
was so windy that I could not hold the
camera still enough to take these pictures!
The white things in the foreground are
actually sheep, not seagulls flying past.

Our hostel in Ballycastle, definitely the
nicest hostel of those we stayed at.

The House of McDonnell is a wonderful
little pub where we went for some live music. The added benefit was that I was
proposed to there...by a 50ish year-old
fisherman named Paul! (Just in case you were wondering, I declined the offer.)

Tractors seemed to be primary vehicles in many of the places we drove through.
