Carrick-a-rede Rope Bridge and Giant's Causeway

Today we went to Carrick-a-rede and Giant's Causeway and got to see the county side of Northern Ireland.

These pictures are of Carrick-a-rede, my favorite area of N. Ireland thus far. It is most famous for the rope bridge that suspends over jagged rocks and the ocean. Traditionally fishermen erected the bridge to Carrick-a-Rede island over a 23m-deep and 20m-wide chasm to check their salmon nets. It is absolutely breath taking and I already want to go back.

I faced my fears and crossed this bridge! I was so scared, but it was a rush. And of course the only way to get back is to cross the bridge again, so I actually crossed it twice. It was absolutely gorgeous and I want to do it again :) I'm trying to convince someone from the house to go there with me again!






Giants Causeway
I'm standing along a long rock wall on the way down to see Giant's Causeway.
The Giant's Causeway, is most famous for its polygonal columns of layered basalt (rocks), resulting from a volcanic eruption. These stones are perfect polygons. You can defiantly see God's handwork in these perfectly shaped rocks.
