Picnics & Campfires

Before I left for Italy and Greece, Dan and I went a couple of times to walk and explore around the Treborth Botanical Gardens. There are some really nice views of the Menai Bridge there. 


The day before I left, he surprised me with a picnic there (and a bottle of Riesling wine). We had a nice, sunny afternoon of eating and playing games with Adam, Ros, Kyle, Gill, Owen and Jack. 


On Friday (30/5), Dan, myself, Kyle, Gill, Stella, Jack, Owen and Niall all went camping at the Newborough Beach on the Isle of Angelsey.

It was about a 20 minute ride by bus, but there were some difficulties. The bus company we took was going to be no longer in service the following day due to fraud, so because of that we had to get a taxi back (and I missed saying goodbye to some of my gals). Oh well, shit happens. 

We had a really fun day and I can now officially say that I've swam in the Welsh Sea (ok, it was the Atlantic Ocean, but very cold so let me embellish a little bit). We had a little cookout on the beach, before relocating up a steep dune to set up our tents and spend the night surrounded by woods, stars and the warmth of the fire.


I love my life.
