The Millennium Coastal Path

So for today's adventure we walked from Llanelli to Burry Point along an amazing coastal path that was opened by the Queen in 2002.

This is our walk diary. 

As you start out you come across a what looks like a lovely nature reserve, of which there are many we are discovering.  But on closer inspection it in fact was an the Stradey Park Rugby field which was used in Llanelli from 1872-2008. 


Then a short distance on is a plague for Amelia Earhart who was the first woman to fly across the Atlantic in 1928. 


We then walked passed the coastal town of Pwll. 


I then took a short video at 11.30 of the estuary. 


In the video you can hear the train as the track runs alongside the waters edge. 

We then stopped for a short refreshment break and I had to do a few rounds of my sock, I mean Wow what a setting! 


The flora and fauna are just so rich just full of nature. 




In the morning when we were having our breakfast we spotted least 12 vehicles driving on the sand and we wondered what they were doing. All became apparent when we saw this information board. 



It told of the fact that the beach is an area where Cockle Fishing is allowed for personal use only. 

After what seemed like quiet a while we finally reached Burry Port. 





Spurred on by a need for refreshments we headed back go a cafe we spotted halfway along and had a well earned treat. 


Then to cool off the feet and just because we took a dip in the water, it was so refreshing. 



Then it was back and relax with my second knitting project which will take a while to grow as it is laceweight yarn and a long cardi design.
