Oh dear, I have not really kept up with this blog (or my other blog to be honest!) So lets start with January 2024. We saw the New Year in at The Pines. (see previous post) March into April 2024 A visit to Erddig A walk near Shell Island. A trip to Bodnant Garden Rest of photos are later as Blogger decided to put them elsewhere!! Views looking down on Harlech The Knights were at the castle Ester morning...chocolate for breakfast! Bodnant part 2! Above Bodnant below Portmeirion! Goodness it's done it again! Bodnant part 3 below!! and back to Portmeirion!! A day on the Llyn at Abersoch annd Llanbedrog Criccieth and a meal at Dylan's. Chirk Castle on the way home
So we drove down to The Pines for a few days between Christmas and New Year. We were not in the Christmas mood so didn't put the tree up like last year, I did take a few things down we had received as Christmas presents though. We didn't have great weather whilst we were there. First day we went for a very misty walk along Black Rock Sands. with a late lunch in Criccieth. Next day we stopped off at Beddgelert on the way to have a picnic lunch in the mountains. Then another day to Betws-y-coed. A walk in the woods A different mug this evening! Most of the days were miserable! A very wet and windy day on New Years Day in Caernarfon We drove all the way to Beaumaris on Anglesey but only got out the care for doughnuts and coffee (they weren't very nice either!) We got stuck a few times trying to get home because lots of the roads were flooded. Below was a field not a lake! So a bit of a damp squib for this visit.
A weekend in February. We drive down on the Friday evening. In time to catch a meal at The Grapes at Maentwrog. The next morning we checked on the daffodils we planted last October. I'm not sure why all my photos keep going on in the wrong order! Blogger playing up! So this was Our last day, the Monday. The weekend had been very grey and drizzly. A visit to Llandanwg. Lunch at Y Maes Cafe. The tiny church was open so we had a peep inside. The rooks were coming in to roost in the pine trees. This is the Paris map we framed and put up on Saturday morning. On the Sunday we went to Caernarfon A trip to Barmouth on Saturday. We couldn't see anything from the mountain that day! Brunch before we take a walk around the little alleyways behind the main street. So a flying visit on a drizzly weekend in February.
