Hint 1...more sheep than you can point a stick at...even more than N.Z.
Hint 2...they love red dragons...it's on their flag...
Hint 3...they have their own language but are in the U.K...
O.K. must be Wales (Cymru) of course and what a beautiful place. The countryside is more rugged than England with bare topped mountains giving way to valleys with babbling rocky streams...
and great food such as Lamb Cawl, which is a vegetable and lamb soup.
The pretty seaside town of Aberaeron is where we stayed...with its pastel cottages and houses dotted along the harbour. The town is located on the Bae Ceredigion (Cardigan Bay) and is a popular holiday destination in the summer time.
It's a peaceful little harbour where the locals are very friendly...
with little boats and yachts, smart or shabby waiting to have their photo taken...
and changeable weather...grey and moody one day...
blue and beautiful the next...
Later in the week I will show you a lovely country house called Llanerchaeron.
Till then...'da boch'
Goodbye.
Lovely pastel painted cottages, they would certainly brighten up a grey day anywhere.

The harbour and boat photos remind me of Nova Scotia in Canada, sigh. Also love "Sean the Sheep" :-).
ReplyDeleteOh Robynne, thanks for posting these wonderful images. I had forgotten how colourful the harbour houses were, and I could almost taste that bowl of cawl! Love the casual use of Welsh words here - well done you, da iawn!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to the next instalement.
