Bristol and again ... Wales

Last Monday Nen and I went to Wales to do a bit of a walk near the Brecon Beacons, a mountain range in the south-east of Wales. The Brecon Beacons form the nucleus of the Brecon Beacons National Park, one of three largest parks of Wales. After an enjoyable ride through the surroundings we had lunch first, before we started to do a short but pleasing walk to the south of Brecon, of which a few pictures below.

The Brecon Beacons are named after the practice of lightning beacons (signal fires) on the mountains, to warn of the attacks of the English in the 11th century.
I felt really young there, finding myself amongst a bunch of pensioners, well-equipped with sticks and proper boots to have a good walk in the hills.
We took another route back to Bristol, over the Newer Severn Bridge that spans the River Severn.

I went to Mela - a very good Indian take-away - in the evening and had a proper meal for only a fiver, which is good of course.
After having enjoyed dinner I walked through Montpelier and took some pictures.


Yesterday the neighbours invited Nen, Stan and me for tea, which was really nice. This Friday I'm going to pay a visit to City Academy in Bristol, so there's again something to look forward to.
