Wales
This part of Wales looks really beautiful. I didn't know St Davids was Britain's smallest city. You caught some lovely sunsets with your camera Alan, and I think the Pembrokeshire Coastal Path would make an amazing hiking holiday.

Thanks for your comment. You'll love walking along the Pembrokeshire coastal path and hopefully you'll get to see a couple of beautiful sunsets

Good for St. David's becoming a city again. What a beautiful cathedral. If we get to this town we will definitely try that ice cream!

Skomer Island
Wow, this place looks incredible. After my Scotland trip in the summer, I think puffins have become my favourite birds! They were very few and far between to spot up there though. So wonderful to see an island just full of them! And congratulations both on your wonderful happy news! I imagine the little bairn has been born by now, so congratulations on parenthood! 😊

Puffins
The island really is incredible. I suggest you add it to your bucket list if you are a huge Puffin fan. Thank you! She's nearly 3 years old now. I am so far behind on writing up my blogs, but have actually nearly caught up! As you can imagine, I haven't done much travelling since she came along :D

Beijing
Thank you for taking me on such an amazing journey through China, Alan. Great to read you had a wonderful time during your first Asian experience, and what a choice of country to start off with! I remember visiting the Forbidden City in 2002, and walking through the huge complex thinking it would never end! I also remember enjoying feeling like a minor celebrity to start with, but then getting a bit irritated myself with all the looks and attention everywhere. Glad you had a wonderful time there, and thanks for an amazing read and journey Alan 😊

Wow, did a great deal. You use every minute to the fullest. This location is still on our list. Who knows how many years it will be before they open up again. The Temple of Heaven certainly looks beautiful.

Beijing
You really managed to pack in a lot of major sites in Beijing in such a short time, Alan...well done! Yet just a smidgeon of what Beijing has to offer. During the Opium Wars in the 19th Century the foreign Allied armies gave the Chinese an ultimatum that they would destroy one of the major sites if their demands were not met. The Forbidden City was on the list. That you saw it in the 21st Century is testament to good fortune that the dice did not fall on its destruction back then.

Beijing
I'm glad you feel I managed to see a lot within my short few days in Beijing, it is a shame I couldn't have had longer there. I'm so glad the odds were in the Chinese favour and I managed to see the Forbidden City. What a magnificent place to be able to visit

Great Wall of China
Wow, some pretty impressive shots of the Great Wall Alan - well done! And great to see you were able to get so many empty shots, and ones of you alone too. I also find it frustrating at busy places trying to avoid having other people in my photos. And well done on the 4/7 Wonders of the World! You're past halfway now 🙂

I'm a passionate traveller and very content when exploring different places. I love to experience new cultures, as well as getting the opportunity to meet interesting people from all over the world. My life changed somewhat in 2019 when I became a daddy and my priority has changed but my desire to travel very much remains. I have a fascination with Latin America; this is because of the beautiful scenery, fantastic wildlife, different types of cultures and history. I even learnt some Spanish to help when exploring these countries. TravelBlog has allowed me to share my stories with frien... full info
