Short Trip to Wales

[smallhobbit]

We had an overnight stay in Wales this week.  On the way down we called in to see the sea at Llanelli Beach:

but the sea had gone out.  We had a blowy walk along by the beach anyway.

The following day we visited Aberglasney Gardens, where we've been a few times before

   

There are a lot more flowers in bloom than we have 



   

Masses of snowdrops everywhere



Not to mention the croci

   

And these lovely iris reticulata (dwarf irises, only about 4 inches high)

Ooooh! Just under a week behind with this one! ;-)

I love the sheer gothic moodiness of your photo of Llanelli Beach! You also took some beautiful pics at Aberglasney Gardens. I think the first two are my favourites, though it's wonderful to see all those flowers in bloom.

I'm not sure it felt very gothic like on the beach - more cold and windy and 'let's get back to the car'. I'm very pleased you liked the pics from the gardens. The flowers really are lovely, but benefit from being seen in person.
