Wales - my homeland

I will include here some pictures taken in August of this year on some rainy days in the Welsh valley where I was born and grew up. It was my first visit back to wales for 13 years alhamdulilah. My family still live there.

A hillside covered in Welsh Heather:





Close-up of the purple Heather and yellow Gorse:



More to come inshaAllah....

A forest drive:



A view of a village in the valley below the forest drive (my old school can be seen in the top right of the pic :



A beautiful stream in the forest drive:




Away from the forest now, this is the view of the Celtic Manor Resort & golf course - (pic taken from the back of my Aunt's bungalow mashaAllah).

Anyone with artistic inclinations are welcome to use any pics which they may find appealing inshaAllah :)

As Salamu Alaikum

Assalaamu'alaikum Sister Aisha,
Masyaallah green...green....green! Very beautiful and make the eyes "relax" ......
Sister..I always thought you are from Libya, (i saw your Libya Series of pictures, masyaallah! ) and i visited your blog for recipe.
Now i got confuse when you post these beautiful pictures of Wales. So....wales is your homeland, it means you are not from Libya.. actually the reason why i was thiking about all of these because i have many many close friends from libya here,
Alhamdulillah

Assalaamu'alaikum

Dear sister Ray, I was born and grew up in Wales mashaAllah but moved to Libya with my husband and our two eldest sons in 1990 and apart from 5years living in the UAE until 2002 we've lived here ever since alhamdulilah so i must be 1/2 Libyan at least by now

BarakAllahu feekee for asking dear sister
