Caernarfon

Caernarfon today.
I needed a bit of a quieter day today so I went over to Caernarfon to explore the castle. The castle was built by Edward I in the late 1200s and Caernarfon was originally a walled town.
The castle is over multiple levels connected by narrow spiral staircases. The area by the Kings Gate (entrance) is actually connected by lift up to the top level which makes it accessible for all.
After exploring the castle I went on a cruise of the Menai Strait which separates Anglesey from the mainland. It’s subject to tides and during the big tides a lot of the strait is exposed sand bar during low tides.
Explored some of the shops after this. Found a cat asleep on some jumpers in one of the shops. There’s definitely a different attitude towards animals in shops over here. Mind you all the dogs I’ve seen so far have been very well behaved.Lue lisää
