    Those are some tough conditions for a hike or walk anywhere. Still a beautiful area explored. Fun to see the lamb. So cute. Wow, that river was full to the brim! Looks like "ewe" both had an adventurous day! LOL. Well done on braving the wet and muddy conditions. Take care and have a great day.

      Cheers Steve. We loved that place. Even with the mud!! 😃😃. That area of Wales is just so beautiful! We’re now up in the Scottish islands and it’s amazing.
      Hope you guys have a great weekend

      We had so much fun Lindsay. How we didn’t fall in we will never know. 😃😃. We tried to clean up a bit before we went in the shops but it was impossible really.
      Such a lovely area though!
      Hope you had a good weekend 👍👍👍

    Seeing you and your wife having fun camping together makes me very jealous! It was also very cool to see people enjoying the natural scenery, and as I watched the long video, I felt like I was part of it.

    Hi Dave and Sue,
    We are just back from a long weekend in North Wales, and the mud was the same there too! We have had soo much rain recently, the trails are just like rivers!😮 🌧. Good on you both for persevering through the mud! The little lambs are just so cute aren't they, we loved the story of Sue and her lamb in a box ❤🐑. Sue the sheep whisperer! We were glad the lambs found there mother again. A well earnt lunch in Buith Wells for sure! Ah, we hate it when the climb uphill is at the end of the day, would much rather get it out the way at the start 🙈. But you made it back, with some lovely muddy memories 🥰. Enjoyed coming along with you guys are always.
    Take care and have a great week ahead,
    Shell and Pete 😊👍

      Oh that must have been a brilliant break. We were in North Wales in September. Seems a lifetime ago now but we loved it so much. We don’t visit enough!
      Ha yes, the tracks were crazy muddy. How one of us didn’t fall in to the “lakes” we just don’t know 😃😃. But it was great fun!!
      It’s a gorgeous area and we loved Builth Wells. A very quirky little market town. The pub was fun, and the people are so friendly.
      Thanks for watching guys and have a great rest of the week. 👍👍👍

Pleased you are still laughing! Just watching the mud getting worse is stressing Graham out 🤣🫢 love the parkup in town. May well take Merlin there 👍Do like red kites. Pleased the sheep were ok. Lovely sunrise. thanks for taking us with you. 👍😊

      Ha, that mud was just dreadful - a gloop that was trying to nick our boots!! 😃
      No idea how we didn't end up falling in it. 😃

    It may have been a muddy mess, but the flowers and the birds were just gorgeous. Everything is getting so green. Yes, she would have. 😂😂 Good job Sue. Helping that sweet sheep and her babies. Your shoes had to have been a complete disaster. Looking forward to seeing the quaint town. Glad y’all found a pub after that adventure.

    • @NBNatureTrailvan

      It is so green and beautiful in that area. The Sun finally came out on our last day and it was wonderful.
      We will definitely go back as soon as we can!

Red kites really are spectacular birds I agree and the views around there were lovely even though you had a tough climb. Great adventure though guys and good shout outs to Mark and Phil, love their channels, I'll have a look at Steve and Lornas later too 👍~ Anna

      Yes a lot of new born lambs about. And quite a few getting lost I would imagine.
      We must get back there again soon
      Have a lovely weekend you two. 👍👍👍

    Hey Sue and David wow what an adventure that was !!! 😮 that mud!! You both did so well with the sheep!! 🐑 I used to feed Meg lambs on the Island for my uncle at one of the farms here - they don’t forget you! I walked up to the top of a field months later and all 3 came running to me ❤ great video guys the views you had from your walk were beautiful 😍 safe travels 🥰 Debs and Mark xxx

      The sheep and lambs were beautiful. What a lovely story that is about your uncle’s farm.
      Sue used to tend the lambs on the farm if they got rejected.
      We loved that place. It was peaceful and quiet and we had a really relaxing time. Had the whole place to ourselves for two nights! 👍👍
      Off to Bonny Scotland next. Can’t wait.
      Hope you two are doing well 👍👍👍

    Super muddy adventure for sure! The lane you w’re walking along looked quite flooded in parts, we’d probably call that soupy! O wow, that was a challenge. Cute sheep and little lambkins… fun that Sue grow up around sheep- I don’t know what I would have done! I was thinking what our muddiest hike would have been, and I don’t think we’ve ever had a trail that was quite so muddy! 😆 You rally made the most of it! 😄☀☀☀🌻🌻

      Yes, Sue's Dad was Shepherd, a stock man and he used to look after around 600 sheep. So Sue was brought up with them, literally 😃
      But the Welsh hills around there are wonderful, the whole area is so green and lush.

    Oh dear Dave, you and Otis would get along just fine, as just like you, Otis is always the butt of all my jokes...but the tail just keeps of wagging! LOL Just marvelous to see the daffodils all out and head bowed over. Would much rather snow than the mud...poor Otis and his white paws and he doesn't like me touching them let alone cleaning them! lol I'd be cleaning off in that steam for sure. But the adventure is all worth it...and seeing that glorious sun brings everything into perspective...awesome!!

      Apparently it’s been the wettest March ever in the UK. Around home, everywhere is mud,mud and more mud.
      The last day in Wales was beautiful - sunny and cold but at least it wasn’t raining! 😃😃

      Loved every second there. Very relaxing place and yes, Builth is lovely.
      And the wildlife was amazing too.
      We will definitely be back there - we do have a lot planned this year - hoping to film and photograph Otters and Eagles on Mull next month
      But Wales is very high on the list again after our stay at Noyadd Farm.
