Easter 2008 was the coldest and windiest I can
remember! We were in North Wales watching a strong gale force wind
making huge white horses on the sea. However, being true Brits, we
braved the weather and visited Bodnant Gardens on Good Friday. There, at
least, we had some protection from the wind. Not many visitors either.
As always at this time of year, there was a carpet of
daffodils.
At least there was no rain...
Just a shot of the patterns of nature on
a tree which had had some surgery at some time in its life.
A promise of spring blossom?
Taken on the same tree.
My friend, Ed with lots of weather
protection.
Two visitors struggling to keep their umbrellas the
right way out.
The waterfall leading into the lake.
There's an old mill...
...which is currently being renovated.
Then its a slow climb back up the long
hill...
where the rain can clearly be seen to be
falling here!
a tweety bird...
Back in Conway, I get a shot of someone
standing silently to attention.
and later still, the beach in Deganwy
I usually cycle around the Orme, but not today. A
shot below from the car.
On Easter Saturday, Ed and I take to
the hills to find the 'Devil's Kitchen.'
