After a week of serving coffee as part of the Open Doors team at New Wine Christian festival in Somerset (which attracted around 12,000 people this year to a full week of fantastic programs, despite the fact that we were camping in the rain for many days), I headed to Wales.
Three friends and I rented the lovely little Compass Cottage in Wales' Gower Peninsula, that little bit of Wales south coast that sticks out into the sea. The closest city is Swansea, but the rest of Gower is truly quiet and remote, with little villages dotted about the miles of forest, cliffs and coast. The weather was not exactly idyllic (temperatures rarely got above 65 degrees and it was usually raining or at least very windy) but we had a fantastic week of exploring Gower through hikes, walks, swimming and body boarding.
I've just returned to Nottingham after two weeks without Internet, and in 36 hours I'm heading back to the States for a month, so blogging time is short. But here are a few of my favorite photos from the week of outstanding beauty in Gower.
