Having camped in the back garden of a vacant and derelict house over looking the harbour at Amlwch i was pleased when i climbed from the tent to be greeted by a gorgeous sunny morning. Having packed up i set off to follow the coastal path again a ritual I'd expected to be following for the next few days.
It wasn't quite Scotland, a landscape i had fallen in love with but the views along the coast were stunning enhanced by the early summer light and cool breeze.
I was thoroughly enjoying the walk which although not that challenging was full of surprises. Coming across a pod of dolphins gracefully gliding through the calm waters was one instance i had to stop. Another was coming across an old factory ruins where i would imagine they once manufactured bricks. The factory or what was left was located in a bay surrounded by cliffs and although I fancied taking a closer look could see no way other than abseiling in or taking a boat across. It would have to go on my list of places to revisit.
A little further along I came across another ruin again i would guess that it was an old and i mean really old brick making factory or maybe a lime kiln. Reaching Cemaes i headed towards the harbour where i was to meet ruth and her husband Alan. They'd offered there assistance and a summer house to kip in which was awesome as i needed to get to holy island for the Tuesday morning to speak to the head of pr for the rnli about giving more assistance with promoting the challenge to help me raise the funds i was aiming for. So far I'd only managed to raise a little over 1% of my target and it was a little disappointing.
