Tilted
And it wasn't just the Plane that titled; quite a bit I may add π¨ - especially on the way back and I must admit the poor Spanish lad sat next to me was a star and glad the rewards in heaven that he'd get for his kindness wasn't applied there and then π
I must also admit I'm a bit tilted too β€ (and not just due to the hypermobility π)
So on the face the fears malarky even though sans support ..........I needed to do one of the things I've always wanted to but never have ....... and get on a blinking plane again (it's been 30 years π and accompanied with a mind that likes detail and thinks about things with a dash of minimal risk to ones self - bit contradictory when it will allow wild camps in the middle of nowhere, that's normally stable on the ground though isn't it π)
It may come as no surprise that Snowdonia is all I have eyes for, I'd even want the meat suit scattered there when the time comes - it's that intrinsic to me β€
........
But I have French lineage and never explored further south where my maternal side were until the late 1800s,
It always appealed in that easy safe slow mediterranean way, there's so much history in the areas that though not Welsh there's still Knights Castles, Je suis tres desole - chateaux's πSacred wells, and legends aplenty .......and just so happens my beloved mountains and sea both together, topped off with a beautiful average of 35 degrees - I actually went out with out a coat!!
The geology was so Snowdonia too.....at times I couldn't get over how very similar the geology was.....A port with an Orme like rock, the colours were so familiar it was just so very much bigger and hotter!! I can't wait to read up on it all, I well reckon that West Wales and South France were joined at one state and time of the tectonic Plates.
I'm still in shock over the airports, can you imagine me nervous and as with the majority of us on the spectrum petrified of making a mistake or not being understood π and I'm not that good at hiding my nerves, and what sane, logical person wouldn't be a bit shaky at being all the way up there with nothing but metal and air between them and that lovely solid stable ground and I'm accident prone enough on that so ?? And of course I've got my kit, so trying to explain and me being meπ
To be fair my last flight was as I mentioned 30 years ago - Turkey and Turbulence and Machine guns.....and I have watched Midnight Express ......but My kit and me weren't detained at any point.....goodness what I looked like explaining it all - Massive shout out to Sean Security Manchester for gentle equipment handling and taking me to a quiet place to recover from the ordeal β€
I didn't die of nerves or any other event ( I am glad I didn't know Ryanair 'crashed' into a fence a day or two previous!! )
And the pay off - well for me, 3 days just being me, mountains, coast, warmth, french patisseries, magical sunrises, climbing as high and as far as I could, yes I was lonely at times and scared and it would be lovely to share it all but there's not many as tilted as me π Whereas Hero got spoilt rotten by Uncle Dave next door......
But now I know the area it's got to be with Hero puppy passported up and a camper - though truthfully if a cheap flight comes up he's getting spoilt by uncle Dave.
For all the brave scared but f it anyway titled souls out there
