    Up for a yummo Breakfast and then off for the day, first stop was Conwy Castle how fantastic that these are still in existance for us to look at, touch and be allowed to dream just a little about what it would have been like. We then drove to The Great Orme Head which can be got to by cable car, tram, or driving,. We opted for the cable car going up , which for me was a huge challange as I am really bad at heights, so with great fear I got on, pretty much begging Derek not to even breathe lol. Was it worth it.....yes it was , it was amazingly stunning as I hope the pics will tell. Went back down via the tram which was fun, We then went to Caernarfon Castle which is in a beautiful coastal area, another stunner of a place, a little bit more polished than the others as it is still owned by the Royal family, on our way make to our hotel we went through Snowdonia OMG it was breataking, I literally just kept oohhhing and arhhhing the entire time, it was like nothing Ihad ever seen before, back to our hotel for another yummo dinner.Weiterlesen
