Friends at The Pines

-

 Also in August I was twice at the Pines with two different friends. I love showing people around this place, our home by the sea.



We managed to catch one of Harlech's fabulous sunsets!



                                                 
A trip to Porthmadog and walk to Borth-y-Gest 




And lunch at Dylan's in Criccieth






A view of Portmeirion from the estuary

Another visit and another friend and we explored the shops in Harlech,












A drive over the Toll Bridge at Penmaenpool and a snifter at The George III




and a lovely walk around Dolgellau...with lunch!











on another day we walked around Barmouth.










and yes...another lunch at Dylan's!











Llandanwg



So I feel we may have to make this a regular thing!!

 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.
