Inspired by Hugo's description and photos of Llanddwyn Island we followed in his footsteps there yesterday.
We paid our £4 at the barrier and commented on what good value it was as the whole area is so well maintained.
I especially liked the way they had made footpaths out of ground up shells and the carved wooden gates were very attractive.
Unusually we left bright blue skies at home and found it to be quite cloudy and windy on the coast.
Nevertheless we found a sheltered cove to eat our sandwiches which we had bought in the Menai Bridge, Waitrose store on the way.
I don't think I have walked on Newborough beach since about 1973 and I don't intend to leave it so long again. It is so beautiful.
On the way back we called in first at Dylan's, Menai Bridge for a drink. We sat outside on the balcony and it was a bit chilly in the breeze but they provided Welsh woven blankets for warmth which was nice. Then topped it off with fish and chips at Enoch's.
A fab day out, thanks again Hugo for the idea.
