Celtic tour day II: The Road to Ballycastle

We then continued our trip up to Giants Causeway. It was too late to enter when we got up there, but we did get in some pictures of the nice surroundings.

Along the way, we saw several buildings such as this. The Orangemen are still very strong in parts of Northern Ireland.

There were some road closures due to repair work, so we took alternate routes that probably prolonged our journey with several hours. We're stupid. But the scenery was nice.

If a bit wild and isolated at times. The small, white dots are sheep.

The following pictures were taken very close to our hotel in Ballintoy, Ballycastle, and less than ten minutes from Giant's Causeway. The scenery out by the coast is at times very pretty, with the shifting interaction of light, land, clouds and waves.

I believe this formation is known as The Elephant.
