This week's prompt is Stairs and I knew the exact photo I wanted: the 100 steps at Mizen Head in the South of Ireland. Alas, a lot of photos were found, but not that one. So, I had to keep on looking and I decided on another set of steps: 162 this time, which can be found at the stairs at Giant's Causeway in Northern Ireland.

Now, I have written about the Giant's Causeway before (during my ABC period), so I am not going to repeat what I said there: I will just give you the chance to read it again by clicking here! When you walk down from the parking lot to the basalt columns, it is a normal roadway. Tarmacced and down hill: easy. However, if you do the walk around bit, you end up at this set of stairs with 162 steps! I counted!! I was gasping for air when I got up on top!!! The view however was fantastic, even on a cloudy day.
This is my 21st entry for Photo Theme for Thursday. Why not join?
No steps for me thank you! They'd have to hire a crane to get me up there.
ReplyDeleteIf you want to climb up steps you can come to Waterloo and try the 253 steps up to the Lion !
ReplyDeleteI could never climb them but it looks like an amazing place!
ReplyDeleteDeze is nog stijler als die bij ons.

This looks like a slippery challenge, but one I would be willing to take if only for the view at the top!
