My Welsh Getaway

Have had a lovely week at Barmouth, in Wales, even though I had the misfortune to pick up a nasty cold. It was a coach holiday, so we had several trips out, and visited Aberystwyth, Pwhelli, Portmadoq and Portmerrion. The only drawback of this type of holiday is that you cannot stop where you wish for photographs, but I did take a few from the coach as we were going along. Barmouth itself is a lovely little town with the mountains rising up behind and a beautiful beach for families. We also had a little outing on the Bala Lake railway. The one I wanted to go on, the Rheidol Valley railway didnt fit in with our timings for the return coach journey, so that was a little disappointing, but I have done it before many years ago. Hope you will enjoy looking at some of my pictures.

San, I didnt watch a lot of the prisoner series, but enjoyed the place when I visited. I also bought some souvenir plates there. The cold is still hanging on I'm afraid, but I'm getting there.

It was very nice Shirley, and Countryfile on Sunday was in the same area, it was lovely to see it again.
