    A scenic walk and a celebrity....

    November 24, 2018 in Wales ⋅ ☁️ 7 °C

    Arrived in Horton near Port Eynon last night after a nightmare journey on the M4. It seemed as if everyone was travelling to Wales!
    Another result with accommodation; a lovely little apartment on a tiny road leading directly to the beach.
    We set off after a hearty breakfast and walked a 9km circular path around the headland at Rhossilli, Mewslade, Pitton, Fall Bay and back round to the starting point. It was cold but dry and we both came back rosy cheeked. After a bit of lunch we left the car back at the apartment and walked down to Port Eynon and all along the beach to an old salt house. There are lots of people walking their dogs, all very friendly (Andrew loves dogs 😂) and everyone makes eye contact and says Hello - it felt like New Zealand! 😊
    As we walked back up from the beach, we looked up to say hello to a passing couple, and one of them was Adrian Chiles! He has a holiday home somewhere near by apparently. For anyone who saw the documentary he did recently on alcohol, you’ll be pleased to hear he didn’t have a pint in his hand, although may have been en-route to the pub 😊
    Now that the nights are drawing in, we’ve come back to the apartment to get warm and cosy, ready for Strictly, later on 😊🍷🍷
