Mother of Wales...

They don't call Anglesey, the Mother of Wales, for no good reason. Many, many years ago, Anglesey produced much of the wheat for the whole of Wales. The climate and large areas of flatland made it perfect for growing crops. Nowadays most of the land on Anglesey has been taken over for sheep rearing, but in the last few years there's been a noticeable increase in crop growing, mainly for the bio-fuel market.However, it's the coastline that holds the greatest attraction for me. Each of the four sides of Anglesey offer a different terrain to explore and enjoy. And of course, for any seafarer - and I count myself amongst this group, being a great fan of sea kayaking - one couldn't ask for a more varied and fascinating coast to explore.
I Love it!
