But in the meantime since I got such very nice feedback about posting pictures, I thought I would do another few pics with a little detail on what they are.
And so ...
1. Our first LONG walk we walked all around the Bay, past the lighthouse, then to the coast trail and got past Limeslade up to where we could see Langland Beach and the curve inward toward Caswell beach. But we didn't get that far. This shot is looking back on the coast trail east/south. I like the light, it was getting "late" but we took this walk in November, so the sun set at like noon or something ....
2. The second LONG walk we made it all the way to Langland Beach. In all it was probably about a 13 mile walk, round trip. Quite worn out by the end, but it is a beautiful walk. So the next few are all from that walk. This shot is on the beach at Langland. -- Can you see the surfer? Yes, indeed. There is quite a surf-culture here in Wales, who'da thought? It's cold a heck, but that doesn't stop them. The best/real surf beach is at Rhosili, which is about 35 miles away, at the end of the Gower --we might be going there tomorrow via bus/hike!
3. Next we have another Langland beach shot. That is the surfer's dog, hanging out near the waves.
4. Behind us, on the beach--these are Beach huts. There are rows of them. No electricity, heat, or anything but apparently families pass down their leases of these little huts for generations because its hard to get one. I guess we will see in the summer if they are filled with families with umbrellas, towels, and long-legged striped bathingsuits ...
5. And lastly an establishing shot ... from the trail looking West/slightly north you can see Langland Beach in the distance. Oh wait, that's Christien! Beyond the next bend in the coast is Caswell Bay. Somewhere out there we saw a seal!
Okay, only lets me load 5 at a time, so that is it for now. More soon!
LOVELY. Can't wait to visit! xxxO
