Morning on the Beach – Ynyslas
It’s another gorgeous morning out there on Ynyslas beach. Cold mind, but lovely all the same.

Canoeing in Borth
Another glorious sunny day here today even if it was a little chilly. Just below freezing in fact first thing but by mid morning it was up above 5ºC so time for another little session canoeing in Borth. This time we went for a little paddle around the reefs by the lifeboat station with Morgan and...
Welsh1000 Walk – Llanrhystud to Furnace
My Coast Path capers all started when I signed up to do the Welsh1000 Walk, a charity event to raise money for the Alzheimer’s Society. I initially showed an interest in doing the event with the Scouts, but somehow ended up being the ‘leader’ for the Llanrhystud to Aberystwyth section of the walk. The idea was...
Fingers Crossed for our Maiden Canoe Voyage
We’d been chomping at the bit to get out in our new self-built canoe, that (for obvious reasons) we had christened ‘Fingers Crossed’ Since getting it home I;d given it a few more coats of varnish and it was now ready to go. The weather was set fair yesterday so a plan was made for...
Fun in the Dunes
If there was one good thing to come from our phone-line outage over Easter, it was the fact that Morgan couldn’t get online and therefore wanted to go outside to play all the time. We therefore had lots of trips to the beach and plenty of fun in the dunes. We kept putting sticks on the...
Winter Returns – Moel y Garn
Well, the forecast was correct. After what was a lovely day on Good Friday, Saturday was a washout, a very windy washout as well. I still wasn’t feeling like a triathlete, but decided that I should probably go for a run or at least a walk up a hill. Anna and Morgan wanted to go...
Good Friday Family Stroll
After a morning working in the garden we headed off to make the most of the sunshine with a little family stroll around Ynyslas. This was all in an attempt to get Morgan off the computer and out into the real world! We didn’t want to put him off though as he’d only get grumpy and...
Sunny Sunday Spin
Just a few photos from what turned out to be a Sunny Sunday Spin on our bikes this morning. It started off grey and cold as we got our excuses in at the leisure centre. We then took a circuitous route out of Aberystwyth along the cycle path and then onto the road to Llanilar....
Ceredigion Hills
I’ve just noticed that as my phone died during my run in the Ceredigion Hills on Saturday, it did manage to take one last photo. So here it is, my view looking SW over the Ceredigion Hills from the summit of Moel y Llyn. Ceredigion Hills
Running in the Hills
Anna was working on Saturday as it was an Open Day at the University, so that mean that for the third week in a row I was unable to continue with my Coast Path Run project. Someone had to be at home to look after Morgan, but we did decide that it would be OK...
