a couple of hills


 A beautiful break in North Wales with breath taking scenery and a couple of hills to climb. Milo was in his element.

LLyn Y Gader on the path from Rhyd-ddu to Beddgelert

Llyn Y Gader


the Llanberis path up Snowdon - apparently the easiest of the paths that takes you to the summit. We are nearing the half way point here.

three quarters of the way up and at particularly steep section

Milo insists on getting as close to the edge as possible with only a rickety old fence between him and a long way down..


the summit is in sight here  (the part in shadow).

lunch at the top

An incredible view, a challenging climb, worth every minute on a glorious day.

Rhyd- ddu, the first leg of a 2nd path up Snowdon

Borth-y-Gest , a beautiful and deserted beach just outside Porthmadog

me and the ordnance survey map go it alone with spectacular views of Rhyd-ddu




Corton Denham early autumn


A much looked forward to visit to Somerset after a year long wait.. the last of the blackberries marking the end of summer.
