I haven’t travelled anywhere this
year, for one reason or another, but do love to travel, usually local places or
places a little further afield. For me,
it isn’t just getting to a destination that I really enjoy but it’s also the
actual travel, the getting to the bus or train station, seeing people doing the
same thing, and then of course getting on the bus, knowing that I can relax for
a few hours, have a sleep if I want, have a snack and drink of coke and most
importantly for me, watching all the towns and cities and fields and all kinds
of places and houses and businesses pass by and trying to take it all in; it
gets too much trying to see it all, but to me it’s very pleasurable and of
course the cherry on top is that you are going to somewhere nice, for just a
day, or perhaps a couple of days.
When I go, wherever I go, I
always take my camera, always and I love to take photographs to remind me of the
nice places I’ve been, even though when I go to the same places again I take
more photographs anyway. I like to take
pictures of beaches, sunsets, castles, little towns and villages, places off
the beaten track and just places that are peaceful and, dare-I-say-it, quaint. Just wanted to add, these two towns, Llandudno and Conwy, are both in North Wales. You can google them and see them both on google maps too.
Been a bit busy this week, with one thing and
another, so I’ll cut it short and leave you with a few photographs of my
travels. I hope to write some more about
my travels, with plenty more pix, very soon.
I hope you like them?! If you want to see more detail, just click on a pic.
