Wales 4

I had not been to the Anglesey coast for over 60 years. It is where we had family holidays at Rhosneigr when I was very young, I still have some memories though. We walked first on the beautiful dunes and forest at Newborough then went on to Rhosneigr, which was pretty much how I had kept it visualised in my mind.

Lucky to have a bright light on this field of autumn grass with the fir trees behind. It was a wet day but in between the showers we got a few walks in.

Day 2 we explored the forest on its many tracks and paths. Here Danielle and the dog are walking towards the light.

 

Wales 1

This is our third year of staying a week in a Forest Holidays cabin. North York Moors, Strathyre in the Highlands, and now Beddgelert in Snowdonia. A new area for me, the location is fantastic, with beautiful rivers, mountains and forests. 

Day one, we walked into the village of Beddgelert on a great path. This shot is of the church yard in the village.

After 7 years at BlackRock, Rowan has left and will start working for Oracle in the new year. Meantime she is on a trip to Latin America. She started off at Lima in Peru, and has just completed a five day trek to Machu Picchu.

In Museum Gardens

When I moved to York in 1998 this footpath in Museum Gardens had just been opened. Its twists and turns made it ideal for Rowan to play on as she grew. So it is good to see it still in good nick, and the plants growing strong.

 

Stroll 85 iii

Passing through the potteries there were plenty of derelict mills and kilns and factories. Very hard to get a good shot of a bottle kiln, but I loved this.
