Fort Lauderdale - Wales via Dallas
April 7 in Wales ⋅ 🌬 12 °C
Flight from Fort Lauderdale to Dallas was somewhat disorganised to say the least. Hung around taking on bags etc for a half hour after our scheduled departure. They had to put out several calls reminding people it was a full plane and if they had more than one cabin bag to check it in as hold luggage. This is happening at the gate.
Made it to Dallas late and had to get our asses across to another terminal for the Dallas to London flight. Just made it by the skin of our teeth.
Interesting scenery on the way. Crossed the Mississippi delta and on the London leg saw what used to be the Francis Scott key bridge complete with stuck ship.
Arrived at Heathrow and sorted the hire car. Proceeded to drive to to where we were meeting one of Angela's relatives for breakfast. As a prelude to the age of AI the dopey car navigation took us out of the airport and then through one of the car parks to get to the road it want. That cost us 7 quid. Thanks.
Then off to Wales where we are staying with the people who we went to Uganda with. 4 hrs on a busy freeway and we are dead tired. Made it in one piece though.
Fish and chips for dinner. Better than any the the ship served up and then crashed into bed. The hire car wasn't finished with us yet. The car alarm went off a couple of times in the night due to strong winds. Sigh...Read more

Day 37
Llandudno and the Great Orme
April 7 in Wales ⋅ 🌬 12 °C
Some sightseeing today. Weather is very UK. Went to have a ride on the cable tramway up a local feature called the Great Orme, which is a big hill/península down the coast. Had breakfast at the sea front and went to Llandudno. Tram was not running due to high winds. Sigh.. Andy and I decided to walk up and Angela and Jan went off to have a coffee/tea.
Long story short, it was effing steep but we got there. The wind at the top was so strong that we were nearly blown over. Hard to hold the camera steady so few pictures. It took about 1/3 of the time it took to go up to get back down again.
Llandudno is a very British seaside town with lots of neat buildings I presume are Georgian and a gently sloping rocky beach that would be nice when the tide is in.Read more

Day 38
Trip to Anglesey
April 8 in Wales ⋅ ☁️ 12 °C
Quick trip over to the Isle of Anglesey to have a look around and have lunch at Red Wharf Bay. No boats involved, you can just drive over one of the bridges.
Had a look around Beaumaris on the Menai Strait. Very pretty. People were crabbing on the pier and the Life Boat shed was open so we had a look at that and donated our change as they are an all volunteer organisation.
Walked along the beach in front of the Red Wharf tavern. Short walk at the time but we watched the tide go out over lunch. Then you could have done a really long walk.
I am feeling somewhat cr*p. The cough zombies on the ship succeeded and I have the surgical. Embarrassing to bring foreign germs into a friend's house. Trying to mask up in the car etc. Not too many pix. I am focusing on YouTube footage. 😞Read more
