North Coast Trip

Greenhill was kind enough to take us on an excursion one weekend!  I had become the designated driver for summer camp!  Mostly okay - only stressful when I forgot which side of the road I was supposed to drive on ;)
So I drove us up to the North Coast.  We stayed in some tents at Portrush!  Kinda glamping - they were these dome tents with heaters!  But we had to bring our own sleeping bags.  Pretty fun they were!
Davina and our tent
There was a pony on the other side of the fence at our campground!
....I have no comment...
We made smore's one night.  Ireland's marshmallows are weird and they don't have graham crackers. But we did what we could - chocolate cookies with weird mallows! haha
Saturday we woke up early to go coasteering!  That was a blast!  We jumped off some 40ft high cliffs!
Don't know who started this, but we all started doing YOGA
Namaste! ;)
After coasteering, we went to the Giants Causeway
On top of the cliffs above the causeway
These rocks are SO cool! Crazy how they were formed!
I love hanging out with these girls ♥
The group! We be lookin' fly
We're all obviously meant to be models
I could stare at these views all day ♥
Ryan didn't want to join us for this picture
But this guy did!
I apparently like to kick in pictures when people climb things
Then to Dunseverick Castle.  It was closed...but it looked FANTASTIC!!!
I mean just look at this ♥
Playing around on some of the ruins
Sunday we again woke up early and headed to the Carrick-a-Rede  Rope Bridge!!
Crossing the bridge!
Stunning views! ♥
And now crossing back over the bridge
Then we went to Bushmill's distillery.  I was designated driver so I didn't drink anything. ;) haha I'll just say that car rides with a bunch of tipsy friends is hilarious ;)
We went to Ryan's Bar near the end of the day in Belfast for linner, and then returned to Greenhill for a BBQ that evening!
This picture is from our first or second week of camp...but it works. hah
I'm grateful for these summer camp peeps - they are a blast to work with.  It's been great meeting people from other cultures and learning more about them!  It has been fun being the only "Mormon" because I get to answer so many questions from everyone, and they're all very respectful of my beliefs! 
They're a grand bunch :)
