Finally some blue skies! It completely transformed the view of the river.08:17:09
08:18:10
Everything took on a different aspect thanks to the better weather we had this morning.08:18:18

08:47:20
She's found one!08:49:05
Chie given her a hand to find eggs.
08:50:49
08:53:28
I think she's almost found them all now.08:54:15
Looking over the wall into the pub garden, and then on to the ridge beyond.09:16:38
Erika with the fruits of her morning's Easter egg hunting.
09:47:38
Heading out for our walk.09:49:36
Such a contrast with the previous photos of the pub!09:50:21

Erika enjoyed climbing over the many stiles we encountered on our walk.

Chie and Erika walking up a country lane.10:13:52
Passed a farm on the way.10:14:03
10:15:15
Chie around the pount the lane turned into more of a track.
10:16:43
10:32:28
10:32:35
We saw some paragliders.10:32:50
Erika looking quite chirpy on the hillside.
10:34:27
Chie and Erika part way up the hill.10:38:30
...as we started to be treated to some lovely views to the bottom of the valley down below.10:42:36
Herefordshire's green and pleasant land laid out before us.10:45:12

10:52:03
Felt quite high up here.10:53:14
10:53:40
Erika and her stick.10:57:50
This is more or less as far as we went - we didn't quite get up to the top of the ridge but I suppose about three quarters.
11:02:34
11:02:40
Hard to tell whether this was a path or a stream!11:03:34
The view back down to Clodock.11:04:58
Chie and Erika enjoying the path/stream.
11:06:35
Not sure what this bit of metal stuck up a tree was - looks somewhere inbetween a saw and an aerial.11:07:01
11:08:54
Back down the hill again.11:51:54
12:04:35
Back down to the little bridge over the Monnow by the cottage.13:13:44
