And so to my last postcard from Wales (a trip we made in April!)
On a drizzly last day we visited a slate mine and....
then Dolwyddelan Castle
Then we headed home (phew....the last of my postcards from North Wales done!)
Way back in April we also went for a walk in Lancashire.
In the shadow of Pendle Hill we walked along the River Ribble.
We walked through the little village of Grindleton
across a VERY muddy lane......
Down a Wild Garlic filled valley to a little river....
And we ended up back in the delightful village of Waddington.
They hold a very unique achievement of being awarded the Best Kept Village of both Yorkshire and Lancashire due to the boundary changes of 1974!
Happy 90th Birthday to Queen Elizabeth II too!
Wonderful pics, especially liked the ones taken at the slate mine.

Always wonderful to see all your gorgeous pictures of the beautiful countryside surrounding you. Have a good week.
ReplyDeleteI think your photo of the stacked slate is just stunning!
ReplyDeleteIt's always amazing to follow your adventures through your photographs.
Hello Lyn,
ReplyDeleteOh Snowdonia! I have been there once, the weather was horrible (we had to go back, there was a man posting to send people back, away from the mountain) but it was very impressive. I also remember the slate ...
Have a good day & congratulations on your fabulous queen!

ReplyDeleteLyn, you and your husband go on so many walks and journeys, I imagine that your head is full of beautiful scenery, historical buildings and fabulous sights. I just love your photos and your commentary. It's always so nice to visit here! xxx
ReplyDeleteLovely post, we certainly do scenery well in the UK.
ReplyDeleteI don't know how I missed this post! Stunning photos as normal. I especially like the one of the the front of the steam train. x
