Snowdon
"Well we’ve finished. We went up Snowden today taking the Pyg route (Wendy called it the pig route – with feeling!) and then we returned by the miners route. The weather was glorious, wall to wall sunshine. So on this trip we have had rain, hail, snow, high winds, sunshine – the lot! Thank you God for showing us the wonders of your creation, but you could have waited until we were indoors for most of it!  Well bore you with most of the photos when we get back, but the attached one shows something of the scenery today.  See you soon
Geraint & Wendy
PS your prayers for the aching limbs were answered – in the negative! Thanks God for Ibuprofen."

Scafell Pike
"Well, we achieved getting to the top of Scafell Pike, so that 1&7/8ths mountains. The weather was not bad for our ascent, some rain and hail showers, but nothing like we had on the top of Ben Nevis. Just as cold though. No snow thankfully, just a few pockets here and there. Celebrated the conquest (and my birthday) later by walking to the pub which is about ½ mile from our camp site.. I attach some photos again, hope you enjoy them, but I’m not going up again this year to retake them so they look better.
Aim to climb Snowden on Tuesday, which if we achieve it will mean we have climbed all three within the week Keep praying for us (especially the legs which need a bit of prayer support now!)"

Tues 29th April 2008


Ben Nevis

"Got to within 200 m of summit, but found deep snow (25 feet according to the ranger) and as it then decided to snow again we turned back with other people. We may be mad but are not yet certifiable!
Next stop Scafell Pike – better luck, and weather we hope"

Monday was a sunny day despite the forecast of rain. We went to Paington Zoo where we watched the antics of the monkeys and baboons and the bravest of us wobbled across the rope bridge. Another lovely dinner followed by two good singers.

Today being Sunday some of the group chose to go to church while the others and Rita explored what was available in the area. We then went to the Living Coast where we lunched in the Blue Azure Cafe before visiting the exhibits.
