Wales - Snowdonia National Park

A group of photos from around Betws-y-Coed. Spent a night camping in the area, Pentre du Farm campsite I think, with our friend Claire and walked along the River Llugway that evening. Also visited Capel Curig which offered a very dramatic and craggy view compared to the green forests around Betws-y-Coed.

Completely inconspicuous.

Abingdon and Sutton Courtenay

A 7 mile (11.3km) walk that follows the River Thames closely for long stretches. Starting in Abingdon the walk follows the Thames through Culham and Sutton Courtenay.

Kiruba, the WWF elephant, came with us on this walk:
