It was a dreary week weather–wise in Snowdonia Wales last week.
But for one brief moment we saw blue skies, so I rushed out and got a photo of Bindi.
Five minutes later it was raining again!

Bindi had a day trip to see friends in Felixstowe. In between the showers she went and sat on the rocks and looked out to sea.
