A mans home may seem to be his castle on the outside; inside, it is more often his nursery.
After leaving the swinging bridge, the next stop was Dunluce Castle. This was to be my first honest to goodness castle experience, and it is a doozie. This nearly epitomizes the idea of an old European castle used in the feudal age. It was well situated on the cliffs and even had a somewhat secret way into a sea cave directly underneath by which emergency escapes might be made if necessary. After parking we first walked down the road, hopped a fence, and trudged across a field to set up the camera system so I could get in another detailed panoramic shot. The wind was pretty strong, so the quality of the pano isn't as good as I had hoped, but it still it gives as decent a representation of the awesome view. After taking the automated shots we heading into the castle and explored for a while before having a nice lunch at the local cozy eatery and then heading off to meet with some friends of my travel partner, Alina.
