I adore the Irish name of this place...
Clochán an Aifir or Clochán na bhFómharach
I always joke with my friend about the absolutely impossibility,
for every normal person, to pronounce any Irish name.
But at the same time this language is a mirror of its cultural background,
a texture of magic, legends, and mystery.
If we call this amazing place just
Giant's Causeway
It has not the same special impact.
All is in a name, sometimes...or not?
This incredible natural amphitheatre of hexagonal columns is set in Northern Ireland territory.
To get there we had to drive through Londonderry,
where we got miserably lost.
At that time it was an amazing experience,
which impressed me, unluckily not for the same reasons of admiration
I had for the natural architecture of the Giant's Causeway.
There was a gloomy atmosphere in that town.
I wonder how it looks nowadays.
