The village of Tintern, situated on the West bank of the River Wye, is about 45 minutes drive from Cardiff so perfect for an afternoon out for the two of us.

Location of … Continue reading Western Canada road-trip – 2 nights in Whistler, BC

As it is, the journey from Jasper to Sun Peaks takes 5 hours plus stops, so this portion … Continue reading A quick stop off in Sun Peaks, British Columbia, Canada
