    Sunday drives.

    I fear me and my wife might be turning into my Granny and Granda. Went for a wee drive around the lough and had a thoroughly enjoyable time. To hell with getting wasted on a Sunday. Driving and photographs are were it's at. Does anbody else enjoy a pleasant drive on a Sunday?

    Some pics from our wee jaunt.

    Larne harbour and Ballylumford Power Station.

    Larne town.



    The behemoth that is Ballylumford.

    My place of employment, FG Wilsons. Owned by Caterpillar Inc.



    Ruins of Olderfleet Castle. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olderfleet



    My hometown from afar.

    It is nice to go on a Sunday drive when you have the chance... and nice pictures! I wish I could have spent more time in Northern Ireland when I visited years ago!

    You really take the best pics...such a beautiful area. I remember my Mom and Dad taking me on Sunday drives. It was awesome! I think that is what has fueled my need to take road trips on vacation. Its amazing to travel and see all the different places. We have a goal with our son that by the time he is 15 we will have traveled to every state here. So far at 9 we have 21 down and will be knocking out several on this summers trip.

    If I lived in such a beautiful country, of course I'd be taking Sunday drives! I don't get wasted anyway, so a Sunday drive would win out every time for me! Wonderful pictures! Thanks for sharing!

    Sometimes my husband do take drives, and I take tons of pics. Since we got a puppy, we usually take him to a huge park out of town. We walk for a long time, and of course I take lots of pics.
