The campsite owner gave
us a photocopy of a circular walk around the campsite. As we walked
along the coast we spotted a seal fishing in amongst the buoys
marking the position of lobster pots. Jane turned back for the
campsite whilst I carried on along the coast. Standing on the
headland of Pen-Y-Cil I watched a school of porpoises swimming
against the strong current flowing here. It was a privilege to watch
them breaking the surface before diving after the fish. I took some
photographs to prove to Jane that I had seen them – tiny black dots
in a big grey sea!
Just after I turned
inland at Porth Meudwy, a miracle happened – the sun came out! By
the afternoon there was a cloudless blue sky and, for the first time
on this sojourn, we were able to sit outside in T shirts. We were
beginning to wonder why we had brought the garden chairs with us!
Lets hope that this is the start of a good spell of weather.
This will be our third
night at Ty Newydd and we can thoroughly recommend this very pleasant
campsite.
