W/C 13/04/26 travel and adventures

 Normal start to this week, work for the 5 days, no Bank holidays..sadly

Very much looking forward to the weekend though, as a trip back to Wales, always love those๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ’•

As you may gauge by now if you read my posts it was up early as usual, on Saturday  morning to head over

First stop was a wonderful walk at Coed y Brenin Forest near Ganllwyd, it was about 8 miles in total, gentle uphill for most of the first half, then a bit of a steep bit to get up for one of my favourite stops for a late breakfast picnic, but being in the trees by the river in the wonderful nature made it all worth while. Weather was a bit grim but never enough to distract from the beauty








After that it was a drive through parts of Snowdonia on the way to the North Wales coast


After meeting a friend who was on a coach trip to Llandudno for a couple of hours and a nice catch up

It was over to our rental place for the weekend for a well deserved rest ,after walking just over 12 miles on the day, i certainly needed one

Sunday was a slower start, the idea was not to do too much walking, that did not last long, the weather was beautiful so it was decided on a walk around the Great Orme in Llandudno, picnic packed and we headed over, it is nice as only about 11 miles from where we had stayed

I love the west side of Llandudno and it is a great place to start the walk, seems like we are some of the few that do it this way around!!


The view walking around is truly magnificent


Some of the little guys 

And a big bonus was to see these beauties enjoying the sunshine in the water off the cliffs



As you get around the Orme you have a wonderful sight walking into Llandudno




A quick visit to Conwy RSPB on the way back to the house, first visit there, the staff were lovely and friendly and we even got to see a little quite rare visitor, not too shabby for a first visit, hope to go back again


No trip complete with out the beautiful Robins




It was a stunning weekend walked over 21 miles, had a mix of weather but as usual Wales delivered it all, i really do love it there๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ˜€
