Driving back up north
Today was such a gorgeous day, and we were fortunate to be driving from one end of the country to the other! Very fitting, since today was also St. David's Day (the National Day for Wales). There was so much to see - farms and baby lambs everywhere, snow capped mountains, grassy winter fields and brown bracken hillsides, stone walls and bare hedgerows... I love Wales. And the kids were so good in the car -- as long as they can listen to the Mamma Mia soundtrack and have their own backpacks full of magazines and other treats, everyone is happy!
We drove a different way heading back north and detoured so that we could call in with Auntie Mary near Aberystwyth, who kindly provided lunch to all of us.
Cousin Rachel came over to say hi to us too, which was a great surprise!
We didn't get to see Rhiannon and Tryfan's other cousins who are about the same age, but the troops sure appreciated playing with all their toys that are at Auntie Mary's house.
We got back to Llandudno around 4pm, just in time to play a bit before having dinner, bathtime and then bed. It was a great trip all around, but it's nice to be back at Nain and Taid's house.
