I am off for my yearly time of peace on Bardsey Island / Ynys Enlli for a few days of quiet time. To spend time singing with the seals (and they sing back!) and bird-watching. What a unique place – no electricity, cars – and no phone signal! This has been a special place of pilgrimage for hundreds of years – three visits to Bardsey were equivalent of one to Rome. The tidal race that runs between the island and the mainland can be frightening, especially on a spring tide!
