On Sunday (as in the changed date and time of this post), I was in Cardiff with Anna, staying at Hazel's place with her and Dave.
We took a hangover-busting walk along Penarth Beach in the morning, (about 3 miles south west of Cardiff Bay.
The weather was quite beautiful and we could clearly see the two islands of Flat Holm and Steep Holm in the Bristol Channel.
Flat Holm is pictured here, to the left of Steep Holm. They seem to be well named! Flat Holm is considered Welsh - and includes the most southerly point of Wales. It can only be reached by boat from Barry, and if you do go there, you may witness the Island's famous colony of gulls and Shelducks.
Steep Holm can only be reached from Weston Super Mare, and its wildlife delights include Muntjac Deer!
I could watch the ocean all day long, and let's face it, the Bristol Channel is hardly the most picturesque body of water!
Penarth Beach has a stunning, real olde worlde style pier which has a marvellous (well kept) lick of paint.
A very nice morning indeed..
