The weather the past week has been uncommonly nice. The soft sandy beaches resemble what I can only imagine is a California lifestyle. But like all good things the weather is not lasting forever and I can see a change is coming. Thankfully I'll be in (fingers crossed) sunny Italy in three days time! Eeeek!
On Sunday my friends Meabh and Andrew took me on one of Andrews often-talked about never-personally-experienced long hikes; 10 miles around Giants Causeway. The views from the cliffs were both stunning and scary. They didn't understand why I was taking so many photos of cows but once I upload them onto my facebook page you'll see why. The weather was hot but the breeze and halfway picnic/pint stop at this little pub 'The Nook' helped keep the heat at bay.
The rocks were pretty neat to walk along at low tide but honestly not as beautiful as the sights from the heights.
They also took me to the smallest church in Ireland which luckily is located across from the beach with the cows! I know it sounds like I have a thing for cows now but weird to see them wondering on beaches, no? Anyways, this church or chapel was small. I would say a priest and two people comfortably... or a preist and one very round person. Cute place for a wedding anyways! Again pictures will be uploaded at some point.
Friday hoping to get to the Rope bridge which someone who is afraid of heights undoubtingly looks forward to! Weather permitting.
