Finally getting Saturday's pictures up. Not easy culling 200 pictures down to the 84 keepers and then below 30 to post. You can see the various pictures from Northern Ireland now. Some of the highlights include the seaside town of Carlough, the Carrick-a-rede rope bridge, and the Giant's Causeway.
Everyone needs to congratulate Helene on crossing the rope-bridge. That was a really neat experience. A rope bridge that runs from the mainland to a small island where fisherman used to work salmon traps. It is pretty high above the rocks and the sea and Helene crossed it, twice (out and back). It was well worth it, amazing views out on the island.
Bushmills was a really neat tour. The 12 year old reserve whiskey was delicious. Helene wasn't really a fan but I still love her.
Giant's Causeway is also an amazing site to see. One of the most astounding natural phenomena I have ever seen. Additionally, the views from the Causeway are amazing.
Not much from yesterday. Yesterday was more hanging around Dublin and meeting up with friends attending the workshop this week. We did walk by the conference site to find them putting the finishing touches on the setup of the full scale JWST model. It was great to see the groups of locals looking at the model and truly interested in what it is going to do.
Enjoy the pictures!
