Welsh Cadair Idris Mountain

Bernard joined me for the trip to Wales where CAT is and we spent the next day trekking up a nearby mountain Cadair Idris. We were caught by the wet, winter Welsh weather just at the beginning of our journey and it stayed with us the whole way up and down. We made it to the lake at the top but I was too drenched and cold to make it to the peak so we turned back after a quick picnic lunch by the lake. Now, when I say picnic lunch, I mean sitting up against a rock hoping for it to provide some shelter from the windy rain while we scarfed down our sandwiches. I must say though, I loved the effect of the gusty wind on the top of the water! I could watch that for ages.
