Our annual Beekeepers Association day out was to Powys Castle this year. We hadn’t been there for a few years so decided to join in, and took a friend of Morgan’s along for the day too. We all met in the car park, paid our entrance fees and then let Ann sort out the tickets.<\/p>\n

We then all headed into the courtyard where Morgan and\u00a0Tom were already busy hunting for Pok\u00c3\u00a9mon. Everyone else piled into the caf\u00c3\u00a9 for coffee and cakes!<\/p>\n

After the refreshments we all headed off into the gardens. The weather was overcast, misty on the hills and a little damp in the air too, but did try to clear a little later. Morgan and Tom headed off on their own to catch Pok\u00c3\u00a9mon and had a fairly good time of it I think. Morgan did manage to catch\u00a0a couple of\u00a0Omanytes which were a new Pok\u00c3\u00a9mon for us so that was a good start.<\/p>\n

We met up with them from time to time just to check in with each other but for the most part Anna and I strolled around the gardens on our own.<\/p>\n

The gardens at Powys Castle are set out as a series of terraces that step down from the castle to the lawns below. The terraces have long borders to either side of flat walkways and provide views out across lawns to the wooded countryside beyond.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
