Go to Giants causeway to take an hour's train to the town of Coleraine, I get there in less than 10 points, just be able to catch the ten ten to distribute to the Giants Causeway bus, all with iLink card. The bus accounted for almost half of the narrow road, skilled drivers can close to the center line of highway flew all the way. The second half is marching along the winding coastline, although the weather is cloudy, but the scenery is pretty good. One side is the cloud sea, the other side is dotted with cattle and sheep and dwellings of the pastoral scenery.
