Looks like a nice day, slept well.  Hotel is lovely and service is good.  Had too much for breakfast though.  Headed off first stop to Bushmills as it was only a couple of kms away to view the old distillery and for Kel to take a few photos around the town.

We then headed off for Dunluce ruins and fortunately the clouds parted and let the sun shine through so it was great.  From there we headed off to Giant’s Causeway and again the clouds and rain disappeared and we had sunshine which made it much more pleasant.  Lots of tourist buses around with loads of tourists.  Next stop was Carrick-a-Rede bridge.  This area has a lot of history attached to it with the salmon fishermen and the lime quarry, plus it had an Iron Age fort which stood on the headland around AD800.  The bridge, to say the least, is a challenge for all those who walk it.  You even get a certificate to say you walked it.  It is a 1.1km walk from the car park.  Got our exercise up today.

We even got a free scenic tour courtesy of the GPS for around twenty five miles, along virtual single lane, find the pullover for passing traffic roads.  She never fails to give us one of these a trip.

Headed off to Antrim and then Belfast for our next two night’s accommodation.  We are staying at the Hilton Hotel.  Caught up with Tina, Ron, Pauline and David at the hotel.  They had had a great time in the last two days.

Tomorrow the Titanic exhibition and a Black Taxi tour of Belfast which sounds good.  It is a historic tour of Belfast covering all the major spots.  Looking forward to it.

Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge (locally pronounced carrick-a-reedy) is a famous rope bridge near Ballintoy in County Antrim, Northern Ireland. The bridge links the mainland to the tiny island of Carrickarede. It spans 20 metres and is 30 metres above the rocks below. The bridge is mainly a tourist attraction and is owned and maintained by the National Trust. In 2009 it had 247,000 visitors. The bridge is open all year round (subject to weather) and people may cross it for a fee, surprise surprise!!.  At least the parking was free.
