A slightly longer trip down and across a bit

Despite not having done any of the minor jobs on the van I headed off again.
Day One
Headed south on the A roads through Shrewsbury, Leominster etc to the border near Hay on Wye (I cheated and had a pub meal and crashed at my cousin's)
Day Two
Walked up Hay Bluff and Lord Hereford's Knob, had a snooze in the back then trucked up through Builth Wells through Llangurig to the A44 and slept in a layby. Ubiquitous packet pasta cooked on my Trangia for tea.
Day Three
Walked up Plynlimon, then drove to the coast, stopped in Aberystwyth then motored up to Machynlleth and stopped short of Barmouth in a layby. Pasta for tea again.
Day Four
Weather foul, turned back and descended off an obscure mountain, Diffwys.
Drove up past Harlech, Portmadog etc., weather still rubbishy had a snooze in a layby. Parked up on a piece of ground near the beach.
Day Five
Returned home via the A55, a good run, nice weather but limbs aching and I needed to head back.
No problems, a good run
