Game of Thrones Location Tour

Photographs from Game of Thrones Location Tour :) No spoilers will be given here, just pretty photographs. We did stop at some other places along the way. Carrickfergus Castle, Carnlough and the Giant's Causeway.

Carrickfergus Castle





This was taken through the window of the coach, isn't it pretty? :)

This plaque is in Carnlough and is for Paddy the Pigeon.

Ballintoy Harbour, this is Pyke Harbour in the show.




  




Many thanks to the kind lady who hid behind the sign and held onto to me to make sure I wouldn't fall.

There was a man painting the harbour and he let me take a photograph of his painting.

 We stopped off at the Giant's Causeway :)

Bunny held my paw to make sure I wouldn't fall, as it was a very windy day.
