We headed off today with dubious weather forecast. We were waiting to see the weather before confirming where we would visit.
Emma took me on a wonderful road trip into the mountains. The day started with light rain and mist and fog which ended up gradually clearing to a beautiful day late afternoon.
The road winded through quaint villages, green farm lands, stone walls, autumn leaves and a hint of mountains but they were shrouded in mist and fog.
The lookout with views to Mt Snowdon was a blustery affair with a busload of tourists and us laughing at the whiteout! Promise you we were there 😂
A visit to Betws-y-coed, a picturesque alpine adventure village with a mix of hikers, canoeists, mountain bikers and day tripers. We visited this village 26yrs ago and some of it was familiar. Cute craft shops, produce and gourmet foods, cafes and pubs, outdoor shops. The autumn leaves are starting to colour 😊
The Swallow Falls were roaring with water today 😊
A visit to Ty-Hwr-y-bont a gorgeous cottage covered in autumn colours. We had to cross a one way bridge built in the 1600's.
We returned through Conwy including castle views.
Finished tonight with a beautiful roast meal.
Fabulous day!
