After a week in Donegal, I headed to Northern Ireland. My trip there gave me so much to think about, reflect about, and talk about! But first, a brief interlude at the Giant's Causeway.
My utterly adorable, brave, strong, and funny pet hermit crabs (this is relevant, I promise) are named Niamh and Oisín, after two characters in an Irish legend. While they have an beautiful story in their own right, Oisín's father, Finn McCool, is a much more prominent person in Irish mythology. According to legend, he created the causeway, and left clues in the rocks about his habits. The causeway is a path he constructed to Scotland; other rocks are a pipe organ he created for Oisín to play, a large boot, and a chimney. He even has a camel, visible in the first picture.
