Explore Britain with me...

Thank you for joining me. My journey has only just begun (September 2014). I will be travelling around the coast of Britain over the coming years. I hope to see all the coastline and much of the interior. I am going anticlockwise and randomly started at the Dyfi Estuary, one of the most beautiful parts of Wales that I already knew, overlooked by the most beautiful mountain Cadar Idris. I am looking forward to seeing and recording all sorts of things. My own passion extends to wildlife, geology, scenery, history, architecture and I am interested to meet people and see the communities and towns that I pass. I have read different accounts on the length of the coast and it varies enormously, but at its extreme could be as much as 37000km, taking into accurate measurements and including all the islands. I don't think that's feasible, but much probably is! I suspect Ill use a combination of foot power, bikes and busses if I am to do it all. Perhaps I can use boats too and maybe even swim a bit.

With Ann, I caught a bus from Amroth to Tenby.  It was a beautiful spring day and we had a leisurely walk all day. We looked at lots of plants and found one or two interesting ones including a type of cleavers that’s a woody perennial.  One section of the path involved a clamber around some rocks, as the tide was still in.  It was really wonderful to see the sign at the end of the Pembrokeshire coast path, and so satisfying to have walked so far.  Even more so it was lovely to complete the last leg of the Pembrokeshire coastal path with Ann. I was already planning the next section and wondering whether to miss out the lengthy estuaries. Perhaps I could follow the route as if it was days gone by when there were ferries across the estuaries!
