Approaching the entrance to the Giant's Causeway National Nature Reserve.  We arrived early, before the trams started running from the park headquarters to the Causeway's field of 40,000 hexagonal volcanic columns of basalt and the spectacular coastal area they occupy.  We were glad we arrived early; once the trams start running in August, this most-popular of Northern Ireland's tourist attractions gets crowded quickly.
