As well as the panoramas in my first post HERE, I also took some usual size shots.
This is The Cobden’s Hotel where we stayed, I checked on Google and it’s still there, looks just the same, as do the rooms and the decor! A lovely setting though next to the River, and a good place to go hiking from.
And we did do a lot of walking on our holiday!
Ben next to a waterfall
Love his smiley face
Although he was only 7yrs old at the time ย he was a game little chap and he hiked along with me and never complained!
We also visited Ty Hill, (The Ugly Cottage)ย click through for a magical history of the place.ย The gardens were lovely
The scenery was beautiful all through this part of Wales
And at the end of the day..
Your grandson is the spitting image of your son., had to double check your date;)))
Really nice shots Fraggy. The hotel and boulders look like the Adirondaks;)

Well…These photos came up easily enough. No problems on this end.
I like how different the backgrounds look when photographed with film as opposed to digital. There’s a different texture to it, almost like it’s been painted. Thank you for sharing your happy memories with us ๐

Oh I just googled that and it’s well space age! Mine is a dinosaur in comparison, but I need to be able to print for work purposes. I am only scanning actual photographs, not negatives. If I get to retire before I drop dead, I will get back to proper film, and will be looking for gadgets like yours ๐

So lovely! Looks like a magical place to visit. Makes me think of hiking and tea and curling up with a good book.
