67. Day Three in England: Just Hanging in Sheringham
While I was planning on adventuring with Christine and Josianne in Sheringham and nearby towns, David had determined to leave us gals to our fun and head off on a solitary urban adventure to Glasgow. So back Northwestward with him for four days, and we would meet again in London! We had a lovely afternoon…

66. Day Two in England: Breakfast on the Sea, Morris Dances, a Train Ride
A beautiful morning in Sheringham! We got up early for a walk along the boardwalk, and breakfast at Whelk Coppers. And now, a bunch of Morris dancing!! Historical railways are pretty popular in the UK, with its extensive adoption of rail as a typical way people get around on a daily basis. We rode The…

30. Day 12 in Llwyngwril: Packing Up, Panic, Plus Sunset
This day, my last in Lwyngwril, was for doing final packing, taking books to the free library at the store, eating up the last of some food, and cleaning up the cottage. I was expecting Larry and Margaret to join me for some wine around 7 PM. All was well with the world! I would…

27. Day Nine in Llwyngwril: Day of Rest and Rejuvenation
So what about my days of rest? Relaxed and domestic. I was grateful to have a wonderfully comfortable place to put my feet up. For all my love of travel, I am at heart a nester. The ten days of my Wye Valley Walk was a little difficult for me because of that — one…

25. Day Seven in Llwyngwril: Rain and a Good Book
And that, as they say, is that! I did some research on a walk I wanted to take, train schedules, maps, etc., in the hopes that the rain would let up a tad. But after a day just relaxing at home, I really wanted to do some scrambling to see one of the nearby waterfalls…

20. Day Two in Llwyngwril: Riding that (Cambrian Line) Train
There it is, right outside my window!! I *loved* having the train stop at my cottage. I literally crossed behind the house and through a gate, and stepped out on the platform. It was not loud or disruptive at all. I rode a train almost every day. Today’s small adventure was to Tywyn (two stops)…

19. Day One in Llwyngwril: Seashore and Shopping
Arose shortly after sunrise and decided to take a walk down to the sea. The community store was to open at 8 AM, so plenty of time to enjoy a beautiful morning! The sun on the sea, the distant hills, and mountains was sublime. Plus lots of drama in that sky. I was so very…

18. Travel Day, Hay-on-Wye to Llwyngwril
I’m not sure why I took so few photos of the bus and train ride, it was really lovely — maybe I got jaded and “standard green lush beautiful UK scenery” is well, just more of the same. There was one dumb delay as the train waited for an hour for an ambulance to arrive…
