Giant's Causeway and the Antrim Coast

In June, my brother Chris came to visit with his girlfriend, and we took a weekend break to the North of Ireland. The Giant's Causeway and the Bushmills Distillery were the main attractions. Basically, the Giant's Causeway massive pile of volcanic stone, all regularly shaped, so they look like they were constructed by man. Legend has it that the giant Finn McCool had the causeway built as a land bridge to Scotland where his lady love lived. Whatever the real story, it was a unique and beautiful site. The northern coastline itself is beautiful - in an odd way it reminded me of Hawaii (without the warm temps). Dramatic cliffs covered in green. More photos of the north coast

Look out for Finn McCool! Not only was he a romantic, he also appreciated a good pint
