This was a superb day for walking, supported bt the fact that I only used one hankerchief throught the walk!
Lots of birds and flowers adding to make this a realy good Spring walk.
The only disappointment today was hemany lmbs we saw seemed reluctant to "gambol"!
A bonus of the walk today wa a PC at the start at Loggerheads and the even better ones at Cilcain (we were even tempted to have an ice cream at the local vulunteer operated village shop.
The last time we did this walk it rained for most of the walk, so the fantastic weather made the walk today even better.

After an almost perfect day and walk we were able to enjoy after walk drinks at the Blue Bell Inn in Halkyn, where the Lees Bitter went down well, although others preferred other drinks that were on offer.
