Holiday - part 3

We stayed at Old Mill Farm, Trawsfynydd where there is an interesting garden containing a mill wheel, a pair of llamas and this Canadian style outside railway.

But we may remember Trawsfynydd as the place where we got stopped by the Heddlu for an ARAF violation **.
Our first day out was to Portmeirion

Of course we came away with some souvenir crockery.
The next day we set out for Anglesey and the first stop was at Llanfair PG

But the main target was the RSPB centre at South Stack...

...where there were thousands of penguins (sorry, guillemots) but sadly no puffins

On our last full day we thought we ought to try one of the steam railways, so we travelled on the newly opened section of the Welsh Highland railway through Beddgelert

You might like to read the legend of Beddgelert (=Gelert's grave)

Later that day we travelled on an underground boat through the magic waterfall to hear the legend of King Arthur.

We returned home via Stoke and visited the Portmeirion shop there - as my credit card will testify.

[**Translation from the Welsh: Heddlu=Police, ARAF=SLOW - yes, we were stopped for driving too slowly]
