    Before heading off we were told about the beauty of this coastline and advised that Abersoch was a must visit place. I believe I came here as a young child, but have no recollection of it. So in my mind this qualifies as exploring new territory in the UK, one of the key criteria for our travels last summer.

But before we can enjoy these it is time for a walk.
