Holiday!

We have just got back from a fantastic holiday in North Wales. We went with my Mum, Dad, brother and his girlfriend and thier kids. It was not a quiet break by any means but certainly fun. We stayed at the Haven site at Prestatyn which was great for the kids as they could join in with the shows in the clubhouse each evening. It was a nice site, clean and friendly. North Wales is beautiful, there was so much to see that we are going back again because we didn't do half the things we wanted to do. We wanted to go on the Snowdon Mountain railway but it was fully booked so we will have to go back to do that. We did go on the Llandudno cable car so at least we went up a mountain.
There were castles everywhere and the scenery is breathtaking. The beaches were also very good, large expanses of sand and really clean. I visited the Trefiw Woollen Mills and chatted with a lovely lady about spinning then saw the industrial spinning turbines. I treated myself to some beautiful roving to do some needle felting with.
Now for the photos, just a taster of the week. Oh and this is the first time I have been to Wales and it hasn't rained, except for one day, so that was a first. I even have a bit of sunburn!

It looks like you had a fantastic time :) You have made me realise what I have on my doorstep and don't visit often enough!
