We stayed almost until sunset, climbing to the top to get a great aerial view of the 37,000 basalt columns.

Upon reaching our car, we decided to stop by a coffee shop in a small neighbouring village before driving to Dublin, Ireland to meet Marcel. The Giant’s Causeway has been a big highlight of my last European vacation.

The Giant’s Causeway…
The Giant’s Causeway was declared a World UNESCO Heritage Site. It is a scenic wonder of almost 40,000 basalt pillars that are a result of an ancient volcanic reaction.

We were fortunate to miss out on this wonder the day prior, as it rained early evening. During our visit Friday afternoon we were greeted with many rays of sunshine.
The walk to the Causeway
We opted to walk to the most popular tourist attraction in Northern Ireland, versus take the trolley bus.
Looking back...
As we look back we see some fisher people in their little outboard boat.

The walked was certainly worth seeing the thousands of hexagonal pillars ranging in varying heights.
