Relaxing at the cottages

After the tiring day yesterday, we stayed in and enjoyed the sunshine at the cottages.

Corn Du, Pen y Fan and Cribyn

We walked all day, mostly uphill it seemed! The weather was glorious (can't see it here but the sun shone all day). We conquered all three peaks. The first pic shows the Scurr family at the top of Pen y Fan.

A day by the river

We went into Brecon today and had a stroll round the town and a coffee in the churchyard - I snapped Elliott and Kitty sitting by the monument. We walked for a long time along a river and a canal watching this heron flying along with us. Bramble jumped straight into the canal as soon as we arrived, and then into the river as the picture shows, She had a wonderful time! When we arrived back at the cottages, she was shivering so the children tucked her up! She stayed still, fast asleep for over an hour!

Mint sauce anyone?

These lambs were so sweet - I might become a vegetarian!

And we're off...

The first real walk of the holiday, climbing hills and mountains

Are we nearly there yet?

One happy little dog. Her bed is in the car along with all the suitcases so it can only mean one thing - walks and life revolving around Bramble!

Twinkle twinkle

I bought a string of 50 of these tiny solar powered fairy lights for the garden for Nigel's birthday. They looked so pretty that he ordered 120 more!
