Almost Arthur's Seat

Yesterday J wanted to go for a walk. I wanted to work on the computer. An hour later ...

Here we are at the bottom of the hill, about to walk to the top of Arthur's seat.





Harrumph. Tourists.



Found out later that this called the Salisbury Crags:
When we got to the crags we were surprised to see it level off.

And even more surprised to see the path go downhill.
Turns out what we had thought of as Arthur's Seat is actually the top of Salisbury Crags, and that this hill top in the distance is actually Arthur's seat.
Hmmm. By this time we were tired and weren't really up for more walking. Maybe next time we'll get there ...

    SewDanish - I haven't been to Wales yet! But Snowdonia is on my list of places to see. I might have to pick your brains about it some time...
