Short Holiday

Ever since Hywel wrote a blog about St Fagan’s I had wanted to go there. So my daughter and I packed our bags for a short trip, one day to be spent at St Fagan’s and a second day at Slimbridge, another place I had always wanted to visit.


A very short ‘holiday’ but both places were equally interesting and we were blessed with fine weather on both days too. We are now looking for our next places to visit although they probably won’t be for some time. I have always wanted to see a puffin and BB recently did a blog that got me thinking….. :)

Excellent Blog Gee , you had a lovely break , Snowball and Snowdrop would have loved that Dovecote , I haven't seen them since they were frightened off their nest by the Rats , Snowball had been with us for 18 months before that I'm hoping he will come back for the winter !
I loved the Emerald Dove , it is gorgeous ...

I'm pleased you had a chance to see the Museum of Welsh Life, and glad you enjoyed it.
Nice photos of Slimbridge for me aswell - no birds lol. It's a place I will unfortunately not want to visit. But I'm glad you enjoyed and had nice weather for both places.
