Out and about with visitors.

Five friends came to visit this weekend so we had a lovely time showing them the  sights. We did loads: Aquaduct with a canal walk, walked to Llangollen which was a long at times steep trek. Horseshoe pass and today a visit to the waterfalls. We had fun catching up and i was amused that as we are getting older conversations turned to aliments and Radio4 programmes, rather than talking about nights out and bands that we had seen.   It  was a fun packed weekend and was really fantastic to see our friends. 

The weather at the was not that good, the mornings started foggy and it took ages to clear. It was not cold, just misty. Sadly the fog did stop us looking at the views, especially on our walk to Llangollen.  The leafs of the trees are beginning to turn which really makes the countryside colourful. 

So after an action packed weekend, we are relaxing with throbbing feet whist our friends have the long journey home.

It is great that so many people have visited this lovely place and I have loved sharing the sights with them. I hope that the visits have given all a break from the stresses and stains of London life and gave them a good opportunity to get some fresh air into their lungs. . So next time they are stressed they can close their eyes and remember the refreshing breeze from horseshoe pass and the beautiful countryside views and take a second out if their busy day to take a deep breath and relax.
