Last weekend I went on a family get-away to the beautiful Giant's Causeway, which is only a 1-2 hour drive from where I live! We've done it every summer for around ten years and it is just so refreshing!
I took a lot of pictures so I could take you through what we did throughout the weekend!
After our car journey, we stopped at a lovely place called Ballintoy for lunch.
I wore my Jack Wills Skinny Sweats and my navy Hollister flip flops - so comfy!
Ballintoy was such a pretty little place.

We both were wearing Abercrombie zippy's and Jack Wills gilets.
We then travelled to the Giant's Causeway and walked down to the famous stones.
The hotel from the outside where we would later be inside for our dinner.
After a long walk, I decided to treat myself to hot chocolate and a bun!
We went to the Ground Espresso Bar in Bushmills.
The coffee shop building used to be a bank so the vault door was still there, so we ate inside the old vault!
After being out all afternoon, I decided to redo my makeup for the evening.
I realised I wanted more coverage than just BB Cream and I forgot my foundation.
Luckily there was a Chanel sample in my magazine!

My dress is from Jack Wills and I love it so much!
Auntie Linda and I.
Thought that this looked super cute!
I wore matching Jack Wills flip flops to dinner.
I got an extremely unhealthy but tasty burger and chips!

We spent the night in Barry's Amusement's on the 2p machines and winning tickets!
Having lots of fun!
The Big Dipper (the sign wasn't broken - it was flashing).
Got a few treats with the tickets we won!
Then to finish the night in bed with a big glass of milk and a chocolate bar!
The next morning was bad weather - boo!
We spent the morning in the same coffee shop as yesterday, waiting for the weather to pick up.
I wasn't that hungry after having a large Ulster Fry, so I went with a bag of popcorn and coke.

The numerous steps down to the Causeway.

For my lunch, I had a lovely bacon buttie and a glass of coke.
We had our lunch in a beautiful place in Bushmills called the Copper Kettle.
A chandelier made from glasses.
We went for dinner in Morelli's and my sister got an incredible ice-cream for dessert!
We went to the Donut Tree to get some treats!
Some sweeties for the journey home.
Some more - oopsies!
The final view before leaving this beautiful place.
I hope you all enjoyed getting a little insight to my weekend. This must have been the most I've eaten in one weekend and I feel super unhealthy now but I am going for a pre season fitness session tomorrow night so hopefully that will make up for it!!
See you all soon,
