Tired now. Been a lovely day. We didn't get up until 10ish, thanks to our late night last night, but it was so nice and sunny that we decided we must go out. We'd got bread and cheese and olive pate we bought at the Farmer's Market yesterday, so we made up a picnic, got in the car and went. We only decided on North Wales when we got to the critical motorway junction. First stop was at Bangor, where we had a walk down the pier to have our lunch in a convenient little shelter:

Lovely views of the mountains.

Then back in the car to drive into the mountains:

We went for a short hike part way up the side of Tryfan:

And then onto Betws-y-Coed, where we visited the little railway museum and saw a very impressive 1/4 scale model.

And then had a :cuppa: and cake, and spotted a bike loaded ready to deliver Potsy's dinner:

Then it was home, or rather parking the car on the drive at 7.30, and hoofing straight round to the neighbour we'd been supposed to have dinner with at 6... :blush: We were a bit late, but got a good plate full of leftover roast chicken, and pudding, which was only just being baked anyway.

Glorious weather, a really lovely day out. Nice to play truant, after so many weekends working hard on stuff in the house...

We discussed trying to make away with the model and NT said it wouldn't fit in the car, but it would fit on the roofrack, although we might struggle to load it before we were caught up with. On the other hand, if we got away with it, it would be worth the damage to the car....

I was too busy eating mine to take a pic!

Actually, my cake was quite hard work, it was a piece of Rocky Road, but much more gooey than usual, and I needed a knife and fork to eat it!

You'd have been quite near to Plax on your travels today!!
It's a delightful part of the world. Betws-y-Coed has many tea shops and a fudge shop :mrpig:
And the A5 around Capel Curig is a brilliant road :biggrin:
