After a great weekend last June we returned to this beautiful little canal which is blessed with views over the hills of the Brecon Beacons.
 |
Couldnt believe it was January. The weeks cold spell disappeared (temporarily) leaving weak sunshine |
 |
The canal was like a millpond leaving almost perfect reflections |
 |
Highlight of the section West of Llangynidr is the 343 Meter Ashford tunnel.. |
 |
...which does feel 343 M long! |
 |
had to try out the new Ghillie kettle |
 |
smooth water and the lack of people gave the canal a serene feel |
 |
stunning refelections |
 |
the clear skies overnight left ice on the tents which withstood the rain that began during the early morning |
Heading East for a few hours on the Sunday morning the long views to the hills had disappeared but we were left with atmospheric slices of our industrial heritage set amongst beautiful countryside.
Overall a cracking two days that left me relaxed, refreshed if not a little damp!
