With White puffy clouds floating around south wales Sunday, we decided to take the afternoon and drive up to the Brecon Beacon. This is a mountain region in south Wales that is also 1 of 3 national parks in Wales. Here are some shots as we drove through the the region to and from the village of Brecon. A couple of the pictures feature the mountain Pen y Fan - the highest point in south wales, and southern Britain.
Or main goal for the afternoon was a visit to the market village of Brecon at the northern edge of the park. A great village to explore. We wandered some of the streets and visited St. Johns Cathedral, where we also had a late lunch on the greens. The river that you see in the pictures is the river Usk.
We decided to take a different way home and on the way I stopped to find and take a photo of Tretower castle. Kids were tired so we didn't stay, but there is an apple festival here in mid September that we want to go to. Now know how to get there!
