Life Travelling The UK Coastline for a Year - Week 32 - Wales - Snowdonia

 TUESDAY, 31 MARCH 2015 Week 32

The blog may seem a tad short this week. We have been to Anglesey but haven't seen any of it. Del has been ill, so three days have been pretty much written off. However, we plan to return to Anglesey at the beginning of May.

We spent three days in Betws-y-Coed. We came here for my birthday last year, but didn't have much time to look around properly so this time we had plenty of mooching around the quaint little village and the countryside surrounding it. As it's in a valley, the weather was mild and gorgeous all the time we were there. I guess the photos say it better than my words.

There is something so lovely about Betws Y Coed. So much outstanding natural beauty and some great areas to walk in. Except, of course, for Del posing as the Gorilla's best mate!

A lovely little traditional train station with rides, a model shop and buffet car cafe. We even bought a carved slate sign for a new house!

We stayed in Colwyn Bay for three days as well. We had a day out visiting Llandudno. I came here as a child and had completely forgotten what it was like, so it was nice to return.

The pier out to sea was the traditional old Victorian steel and wood, but it was bent and twisted around the bay before stretching out straight through the sea. Very strange. Although there were lots of lovely little shops and arcades, and cafe bars on there so we had a stroll along the pier.

Lunch was a surprise too. We thought we'd ordered a little chicken platter tapas thing and we were presented with this enormous wooden block of food! The Carlton pub, if anyone wants to know the name. A lovingly looked after traditional Victoriana style pub.
