Ok its been far too long since I posted but we have been very busy and I will endeavour to catch up with a series of short illustrated posts over the coming quieter week... for starters...we went camping in North Wales - Idyllic - seriously such a good break and so wonderful to be back in the van... the first day it rained all day and it was quite joyous to be snuggled up in the van listening to rain on the roof doing nothing but reading books and doodling - bliss...
Then he sun came out and stayed out for the rest of our trip. We had found an excellent campsite on the edge of the Snowdonia National park and it was almost empty - so we had a whole field to ourselves - Tal Mi Gnedd near Nantile - fabulous spot extremely pleasant hosts, lots of sheep - even some escapee cows in our field at one point- good facilities and as a bonus, lots of walks just from the campsite.
We had a fabulous day exploring crags and lakes locally and then some friends joined us for the rest of the week. We had a campfire every evening and lots of walks, wine, crisps and laughter - Dr Fred went proper climbing and my friend and I got lost in a bog - wet soggy but still laughing. We drove over the bridge to Anglesey and to be honest were a bit shocked at how busy the 'remote' spot was - not remote at all - after all where in Anglesey could be - but it was good to walk along the jelly fish strewn beach and down to the lighthouse - fantastic panoramic views and seals in the sea. Its a very beautiful part of the world and we look forward to returning once school holidays are over.
