Wales and rellies

Lynn and Mel drove us to their caravan in North Wales on Saturday, a few hours after we arrived. They didn’t realize when they left us that we were unsure of the effect of a gas stove on an electric kettle. The good news is the smoke alarm works but the bad news is that they need a new kettle and dishcloth (used to put out the flames). 
Sunday’s walk was over the mountains, passing horses and sheep and then down into Conwy. Not so long as the Devon walks, but equally beautiful views. 





In Conwy we were tourists but not quite prepared for all the pirates.....even in the tea shop. 
And did you know? A tidbit from the little museum. 
And it was in the tourist office we found these cookies. So my challenge is to make cookies in scallop shells. 


Our walk on Monday was equally lovely to the top where there were stone circles. 



We found the pilgrim route and others that share the same path. 

On Tuesday morning, we packed up and walked along the beach to the train station a mile away. The train does not make a regular stop so you have to flag it down. 

We met another 2 of Les’ cousins, one yesterday and one today. His dad was one of 13 children so I’m sure there are many more lunch dates with cousins, in the future. 
Tomorrow we fly home and I’m looking forward to seeing how overrun my garden is.
