We recently had a family holiday in Aberdaron in
North Wales. This is a view of the beach, looking
towards Ynys Gwylan-fawr and Ynys Gwlan-bach.
Emmie and Alison on the beach
The view from the cottage which Sue, Andy, the
girls and Chase(the dog) stayed in
Abersoch beach
Windsurfing off Abersoch beach.
Now for a quick lesson in the Welsh language.Ynys is Welsh
for island,bach means little and fawr is large. Aber means at
the mouth of the river,so Aberdaron stands at the mouth
of the river Daron and Abersoch at the mouth of the river Soch

The land of some of my ancestors. Very beautiful photos.
nice coast although I've never actually been at Aberdaron.
I want to walk the hills and dales of Wales in two years time. My grandmother came from there to Australia in 1919. You have some lovely photos in your collection.
Wonderful series of photos. What a nice place. I particularly enjoyed the photo with the shadows of the clothes on the line showing up on the hedge. Very nice.
Beautiful beach photos, but the laundry one has so much personality!
OKAY, I'm packing my bags. I could easily spend a couple of weeks there. Gorgeous.
Love 'em all but I really love the shadows created by the clothes on the clothes line.... that's really special!!

That is sooooo pretty. You have captured things well, I'll bet the water at the beach was cold.
We were in Ireland this spring and last spring, and Scotland and Isle of Man in between. Things are pretty in general in the U.K. We may never make it to Wales.

What a lovely place for a holiday. Great photos!
Happy weekend! Perfect one for SWF! We all live under the same sky, but we don't all have the same horizon.... Mine's up too hope you can drop by...
These are all beautiful pictures. Must be a lovely place or live or visit.
That's a beautiful view. I can't pick a favorite.
I love the one with the laundry! So cute!
Hope you can hop by my SWF post HERE. Happy weekends!
I like each and everyone but I love the photo with the clothes on the clothesline.
Lovely collection, but the washing blowing in the wind really got me. Such a wonderful reminder of what sunny day is.
Angie: I do love all your ocean captures today.
I think that you live near to paradise!!
Have a nice weekend!

Hi Tom,
Thanks for your comment. Yes, we certainly did go by the old church and we saw the Celtic cross.It's beautiful, isn't it.I'm afraid I didn't take a photo of it but I have got it on my new toy! A camcorder, a gift from hubby, courtesy of E-Bay!
Great series :)
