Waiting for the weather to ease...

Well one day less day to go and we're still keeping our fingers crossed for next week, that the weather will hold fair, but according to forecasts its due to get cold again Typical!
We managed another walk yesterday this time up the Afan Valley following the Afan trail. It was decidedly dodgy and in places the ice was just sheets of glass stretching right across the walk ways. Descending then climbing back up the valley to the Afan resource centre was extremely testing. I think we should have taken crampons and ice picks
The birds were amazing one Robin even bounced around our feet as though asking to be fed, only the dedicated walkers were out on the trail, as without proper footwear and clothing it could be quite dangerous.
Below are some of the photos we took, a welcome break of warm Welsh-cakes and a cup of tea was our reward for venturing out.
