Walk Around Wales - Dai's Blog

Dai's walk around Wales blog - February 2019

Gethin and I took a walk as far as the viaduct at Cwm Gwrelych. It had snowed a few days previously and there were still some patches on the ground, It took us nearly an hour to make it to Cwm Gwrelych, a distance of around half a mile. We had an action man (Bro) and car with us for snow time entertainment. We also played the falling leaf game and Gethin caught an oak leaf after I gave the tree a little shake.

I was due to stretch my aching muscles some time today so off I went to the Ferry Bend for sunset. I caught my newest pair of Brasher's with the sunset in the background, the light was quite nice too as I returned along the river to the car so I spent a few minutes with the camera on long exposure attempting to flatten the water.



The monster truck was going fast	I swum underwater and swum on top of the water as well. This is the first day that I swum on my own	gethin and monster (Gethin's first written blog)	monster (Gethin's second written blog)
Gethin dictated the information for the first two pictures with a little help on the second from Grampa. This is the first day that Gethin swam on his own, he covered about 2-3 metres pushing off the wall. He is now comfortable swimming underwater and it's only a matter of time before he combines swimming underwater with breathing above the water and greater distances are achieved.
