Part one-My Wales Weekend Saturday 21/02/26

 A usual work week in the office Monday to Friday, then over to pick the daughter up from the train station after work, as she would be spending the weekend in Wales with us, thereby giving us a good chance to be up early on Saturday and start the road trip.

All according to plan, up and away, with the first stop being in Betws-y-coed, picture perfect for a breakfast and a freshen up stop.




Then back in the car to complete the rest of the journey into North Wales

Next stop will be the west side of Llandudno, parking up we all get ready for a walk around the Great Orme, usually we walk to the top but fancied a change and it is a lovely route to do, bit of an up and up a bit more at the start this way around, but wonderful places to stop and admire the view.





An unexpected sighting of some seals, just over half way around, which was typical and taught me the lesson to carry more of my lenses for the cameras with me, i only had my smaller lenses so had to be pleased with the photos i obtained. My family spotters did pretty good, some were not so easy to see!!







The walk was nearly completed, some portrait photos of my daughter taken from the day




Plus there were some early signs of spring, which is wonderful to lift the spirits




Once down in the town, it was a spot of a well earned lunch and timed so perfectly as the rain let loose, still going when we finished lunch and it was a nice mile walk back to the car, got a bit soaked but our home for the weekend was ready, so a short drive around the coast, a bit of unpacking and settled down in a nice warm and comfy house, a place we love to stay when in the area, a nice coffee and some cake too-WONDERFUL

That was about all the adventures for this day, just a bit of relaxing and an early night, stay tuned for the rest of the adventure tomorrow!!
