Picking out a few chords on a Baby Taylor BT1...Obviously to showcase the guitar rather than any skill I may or may not have, but such a sweet tone from a small guitar ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8-GwVPON3mU
One of the 3 main tombs of the Brú na Bóinne World Heritage Site and the least busy in terms of visitors. I was the only person there on that morning. Like the other tombs, Newgrange and Knowth, Dowth also has kerbstones that are decorated with rock art though it is harder to see due to the ravages of time...and unfortunately access to the 2 chambers is not possible as the gates are locked.

The Antrim Coast Road, regularly voted one of the world's most scenic drives, was constructed between 1832 and 1842 by William Bald under the supervision of Thomas Woodhouse and Charles Lanyon to link the many small communities within the Glens of Antrim with the main towns in the area. Many cubic tonnes of rock was blasted away from the coast to create the route and sculpt archways along the way, including The Black Arch.
Next to the Black Arch, there are two strangely shaped large rocks sticking out from the ocean, and a small cave entrance with a staircase that takes you beyond the seawall and closer to the lapping waves of the sea. This strange creation is called the Devil’s Churn and is one of Larne’s most famous haunted tales.
The story goes that one night a drunken piper went into the rocky opening and never returned. Apparently, as the clocks strike midnight, you can hear him playing his pipes under the hearthstone of a house in the Ballycraigy area of Larne, where the cavern is supposed to exist. It is called the Devil’s Churn due the old hand churn-like sounds the lapping waves produce moving between the rocks and the cave.
There wasn't much churning the morning I visited...the sea was very calm

A walk around the prehistoric settlement/defensive site...much later used as a meeting place for members of the United Irishmen's 1798 Rebellion.
