Giant's Causeway

We took our first trek up to Northern Ireland.  The Giant's Causeway is an area with hexagonal volcanic pillars/stepping stones by the sea. The weather forecast had only a 20 percent chance of rain for the day.  We had been so lucky with weather thus far that I didn't worry too much.  Cold, rainy, windy and miserable.  At least with the lousy weather, there wouldn't be crowds though -- right?  Absolute chaos.  People everywhere.  Nearly impossible to get a single photo without other tourists.  The stones were slippery so it was a bit difficult to even explore.  It was gorgeous place.  Hopefully we will get back in nicer weather.  Unfortunately, our days of nice weather are numbered...
