Graig Llanishen walk

The head may have felt a little heavy after a night on the Brains SA, but I managed my traditional Christmas Day walk up Graig Llanishen.

With the temperature hovering around zero and ominous clouds looming on the horizon, I had to wrap up warm for the walk.

The walk worked out at around 6 miles (see the rough route here), and here's some photos snapped on my excellent little Lumix LX3 camera:


Walking up Caerphilly Road (A469) I passed this curiously truncated and shrouded street lamp.



Dark clouds on the horizon.


Walking on to the muddy footpath, which crosses a stream a few yards on.


Watch your dog!


Electric cables




Low winter shadows.


Dark sky over Cardiff.

Welcome to Cardiff!
