It’s a rare occurrence to hear the weather forecast say “and the best of the sunshine will be in North Wales”. Quick change of plan to make the most of it.
Bodnant
An old favourite and looking as great as ever.
And Plas Newydd again (with deckchairs).
Home on Saturday – left in a monsoon.
Can’t spend the whole week revisiting so headed off to the Lyn Peninsula on a nice day.
Starting at Aberdaron which felt a bit like Oxwich and Langland.
Then off to Plas Rhiw (I can’t pronounce that but Eileen got pretty close)
Oriel Plas Glyn Y Weddw – A private art gallery
Or our local beach
Barmouth
Barmouth in 2020
Plas Newydd
Plas Newydd in 2020 – it was much sunnier and warmer then!
Penrhyn
And before
Penrhyn is always a “bad weather” visit as essentially it’s all indoors. But it’s a very uncomfortable visit – unbelievable wealth built from slaves and then the local quarries – the latter being more recent which seems to add to the discomfort.
And a quick hi from NYC!
Conwy and Plas Mawr
And for fun the next one is from from September 2020
Our beach
Met up with an old friend in Dolgellau
It’s the end of June. After the heat of NYC where better to go to cool off for a week!
Powis Castle is our favourite stopping point on the way to North Wales as it’s only about 3 hours away. Not today – M1 was kind enough to add an hour to that but we made it. But good to be back.
Staying in an enormous farmhouse
And stayed local on Sunday
