Men of Harlech

Rainy day today, luckily we had some rainy day options planned!
We visited Harlech Castle this morning and had a wander round the village, where apparently there is the world's steepest Street, but it didn't actually seem that steep!
We had a rainy day picnic in the car and headed to Cwmorthin waterfalls, Blaenau Ffestiniog, which isn't far from where we're staying, as the rain had eased off.
We found the landscape really interesting as we were surrounded by the mountains, but also waste slate tips which were just amazing. We also found a ruined Chapel where some sheep were seeking solace from the rain.
Unfortunately we then had a horrendous downpour when walking back to the car and we got absolutely soaked.
We had to then pop back to the cottage to get changed before going to Zipworld, where we'd booked underground golf. We got to travel underground on a mine shaft 500m underground in the disused mine. There was even a slide! It was a bit chilly down there, around 7 degrees.
Despite the rain, we did loads today and plan on having a nice rest this evening to warm up!Read more
