Castles, Sheep and Rain

While in the Brecon Beacon National Park we did some hikes. Below is a picture of us walking in the rain and above is a view from the top of a mountain. We hiked 3 miles to reach the top and nearly were blown into the welsh countryside. seriously, I have never experienced such strong wind. It was a blast inspite (or mabye because) of the weather. On the way back to Oxford we drove through the Wye Valley - the birthplace of british tourism. There you find lots of castles and ruins like Tinten Abby build by Cisertcian monks in 1131!
