Wonderful Britain

Four of us decided that we would have a day out last week, to make the most of the Indian Summer weather, as it may well be our last chance this year. My sister-in-law got to choose where we would go, and I was kind of disappointed when she chose the Gower Peninsula. However, I will learn for the future, not to pre-judge something until I have done it. The day was absolutely fantastic. We started out by visiting Aberdulais Falls, went on to Mumbles, stopped for lunch at Bracelet Bay and ended up at Rossili beach. Rossili was absolutely breathtaking, apart from the hike down to the beach itself, for which you definitely needed to be fit! We walked for miles along flat packed sand, saw the remains of a ship wreck which is visible at low tide, a couple of beached jelly fish, cockles still in their shells, and even cows on the beach taking a well earned rest!!!! We then went back to Bracelet Bay for dinner, at a lovely Italian restaurant, with views overlooking the sea. The food and service were fantastic and it was certainly a fitting end to a lovely day out.
