The first is definately tradescantia.
The second may be the English bluebell, H. non-scripta if it was May.
The third may be a semi-tropical, Corea or some form of it. Look into
Chilean or New Zealand plants as they do well there and are enthusiastically
planted on the southern coast. It does not appear any hardy plant grown here.
The fourth, another guess, is an allium, A. triquetrum. This is a UK native
and widespread there.
Both of the bulb type plants in the photos grow or will grow in damp meadows.
Even if you buy a small plant guide in any country these days, the plants you
find are likely to be from elsewhere so the ID is difficult.
They are great pix, sounds like you had a wonderful time.
