Easter in Wales

It was a lovely Easter weekend to go to Wales, with the sun shining on and off and not overly cold. I joined a three-day tour and met some lovely people. We didn't have much time, so we stayed in the south, middle and west of Wales. We stayed in Cardiff and then visited the Brecon Beacons, Aberystwyth on the coast and then to a coal mine and the Roman town of Caerleon. We also visited the majestic Tintern Abbey and 'town of books' Hay on Wye which were other highlights.
