Our first weekend get-away was to Wales. Our first stop was here in Chepstow to see the castle. Then we went to Tintern Abbey, Hay-on-Wye ((known for it's numerous second-hand bookshops) and stayed in Abergavveny for the night at a hostel.
We rode fat and fuzzy Welsh horses. I had so much fun being a Welsh cowgirl (minus the soreness after!). My horse's name was Danny and he was the slacker of the group.
The Welsh countryside was relaxing. Much different from any countryside in the states.
A pub that we stopped at during our ride took an hour to bring me some chips!! I think they were growing the potatoes, or cutting them blindfolded... not really sure what took so long. |
