It is getting late and we've had a very long and tiring day -- in a good way. I wanted to post a few pictures from our Busy Bus Tour advertures arranged by Cruise Critic member, Virginia Wheat.
Chester, a really beautiful town!
We rode a steam train through some beautiful countryside. I sure thought about Hunter because there was a whole room of Thomas the Train stuff at the station where we left from.
Mike was our Driver/Guide for the day and he did a great job of entertaining us with local lore!
Betws-y-coed for shopping and Welch Cakes which look like little pancakes with dried fruit in them. Don't ask how to pronounce any of the names of towns we visited when we get back home --- except for Chester. The Welch have a language of their own whichis quite mesmerizing!
Castle Conwy
View of waterfront town of Conwy from the castle.
People were lined up to see the smallest house in Great Britian (Conwy). There is also an "ugliest house" in great Britian which has quite a story behind it but unfortunately we did not get to see that. Seems it was built by 2 brothers (in a contest many yearws ago) and was completed in 1 day -- with a working chimney.
Stopped at the beautiful seaside resort of Llandudno for photos.
Tomorrow, Belfast, Ireland....
