Day 2
Today was spent running about in the north of Ireland doing the Coastal trail thing, as you do.
The guy at the campsite advised me to go to Murlough Bay, so I did. What a sight it is, the road down is very narrow, steep and twisty with not the best of surfaces.
Really not the place to take a car although I did meet a silly French person driving down when I was leaving, at least he had the decency to have his wife walking in front to look out for any traffic.
After leaving there I went across to Bushmills to have a look at Dunluce castle.
Only other thing of interest was this place, well it might interest the Lowflyer.
And before you say anything John, it was as near as I could get without paying to get in.
I then made my way back along the coast by way of Whitepark bay
To the Giants Causeway, very interesting if not a tad expensive.
Enough was had with the geology so moving on along the coast I saw Dunseverick Castle, or what's left of it, a bit optimistic to call it a castle, if you ask me.
Not too much of a castle left at Kinbane head either.
No, honestly, there is a bit of a castle there if you look closely.
A view in the other direction.
Next nice wee place was Ballintoy which used to be a really busy place with limestone works that supplied stuff all over.
The wee harbour.
One of the caves left by limestone excavation.
Still keeping to the coast road I stopped for a coffee in Ballycastle. Plenty of moneysworth in the harbour.
The beach? not so much.
Final bit of sightseeing for the day was Tor Head.
Another day enjoyed, 115 miles...........................but still no shamrocks.
