We spent last week in Wales. We travelled into Powys, having collected our friend from Lincolnshire at Shrewsbury station and made our way via Clun and Knighton to visit another friend who lives in a small village near Llandrindod Wells. We spent the first day in and around the Brecon Beacons National Park. On the morning of our second day we sat in the sunshine in her lovely garden drinking coffee and I took some photos of the poppies growing there.
Patty's Plum. Mrs Perry, Princess Victoria Louise and one whose name I can't remember.
After making sure our friend was safely on her train home to Lincolnshire we made our way up to our neighbours' caravan, which is on a site between Tremadog and Beddgelert, via the RSPB nature reserve at Ynis-Hir which overlooks the River Dovey estuary not far from Machynlleth.
During our stay we walked some of the coastal path around Criccieth and also between Porth Dinllaen and Neffyn.
We also visited the RSPB nature reserve at South Stack on Holy Island, Anglesey not far from Holyhead.
Close by were the fascinating ancient hut circles at Ty Mawr, Holy Island, Anglesey
We also spent some time at beautiful Porth Dinllaen, walking along the beach to the harbour and back before walking along the costal path.
The last full day we spent at Llanbedrog where again we walked along the beach before looking around the art gallery and sitting in the sheltered garden for afternoon tea.
On our way home we visited Erddig as it was ages since our last visit. We had a lovely lunch, went inside to look at the house and then had a wander around the gardens before setting off for home.
I'll write more on some of these places in more detail later. For now the lawn needs cutting, the weeds are sky high and there are piles of laundry to grapple with.
