We checked out the River Roe where there were a couple of fly fishermen perched on the rocks. The Antrim coast and its seaside resorts were very run down compared to Southern Island. We stopped at one for fish and chips and the owners were very envious of the investment that has been put in by the EU. They were really pleased to hear that we had traveled all the way round the coast and were bothering to stop there. It was not much further to the Giants Causeway, at least there were plenty of tourists here, to look at the amazing rock formations that make up the causeway. It looks like very old giant size block paving. Its only about 20 miles from here to Scotland and the temperature shows it. Been getting noticeable cooler particularly at night. We walked up the cliffs for a better view then back down to the NT car park where we started to read about it in the visitor centre. We have covered 1855 miles to get here.
We also visited Musselden Temple and stopped overnight at a Watertop Farm The owner, Paddy McBride, has written a small booklet about the history of the farm which we bought for a couple of pounds.
