Tywrideen - GC242Q7

Sarah and I planned to do this one as the first of a set of seven fairly new caches in the Rhoscolyn area. We had just come from South Stack where we had been doing a spot of birdwatching from Ellins Tower and the lighthouse stpes - we'd seen a few puffins there (from a distance) and the ubiquitous razorbills, guillemots and gulls. Perhaps the highlight however was a chough which landed right in front on me on the steps down to the lighthouse and which obliged me for a few close up photos.

We really couldn't decide the best way to tackle all seven of these caches to make a circular route without backtracking on ourselves. After much debate we just parked by the church and decided to head for Tywrideen first. It was a beautifully sunny day and the walk was very pleasant with excellent views of the countryside and coastline. The cache was a fairly straightforward find, although we did have to wait for some muggles to pass by before we could pick it up and do the admin.
