Soggy-ness

First and foremost our thoughts are with those who have been affected by the floods and other "freak" weather's across Europe recently.
(It seems that whenever we go away something happens....sometimes war or bombings....this time it was the floods!! I'm not sure if stuff waits till we're on holidays to occur or if we're just more aware of things that happen when we're away...probably the later.)
Either way it contrasts vividly with the travels we're doing now since we've had almost nothing but sunny weather since we arrived and only a few days of drizzle. Beautiful big blue days of rolling lush green Irish hills and rugged windy coastlines.
From Belfast we went north as most people do to see the Antrim Coast. The Giant's Causeway is the big draw up that way and it was touristy but spectacular. Bushmills Distillery was delicious and the lesser known Mussenden Temple was beautifully perched on the clifftop.
We fell in love with Londonderry - a gorgeous city with a great atmosphere despite it's violent past.
Dunfanaghy we found the best fish and chips and the best place to eat them. Sitting on top of Horn's Head (large cliffs) and looking out across the ocean. Afterwards we sat and pondered the meaning of life as the sun went down!!!
We've done heaps since then (too much to mention everything) but a general overview goes something like this....
Driven through beautiful scenery to wander around intriguing ruins and climb very steep hills for spectacular views before staying at sumptuous B&B's, meeting ever so friendly people at every turn and drinking delicious beer in gorgeous pubs whilst listening to toe tapping traditional music!!!
Excuse me while I find my thesaurus!!!
