Abergavenny Castle - A Toddler Explores

We love Abergavenny, a small market town nestling in the Eastern edge of the Brecon Beacons. We like to visit on a Wednesday when they have their Flea Market. It's a great place to rummage. We thought we would visit and include a visit to the castle.

Finding Our EPIC

This week we were finding our EPIC. Both literally and figuratively. Visit Wales are promoting all the amazing things you can do in Wales with a four metre high mirrored EPIC sign and the hashtag #findyourepic. We are lucky enough to live in Wales so have the amazing mountains, waterfalls, beaches and castles on our doorstep.

#MySundayPhoto Number 35

#MySundayPhoto Number 35 is of Bear on the EPIC sign at Tintern Abbey. Honest, he is there!

Visit Wales is taking the four metre high, mirrored sign around Wales promoting all the fabulous places and things to do in Wales. They are encouraging people to have photo's taken with it and share on social media using the hashtag #FindYourEpic.

We just had to join in!

Using the same features it will also show you how to add an image to your photos.

Sunshine And Summer

Sunshine and summer. Honestly it happened. It may be difficult to remember now but only last week the weather forecast was for a heat wave. Temperatures predicted to be into the 30's so we had our plans all worked out, paddling pool in the garden as the beaches would be packed.
