Hi Maureen
We absoutely love North Wales and can't wait to go back again. Love the photos, recognised many of the lovely places you visited. Pity about the UK weather eh, but what can we do?
We stayed at Chirk CC site back in June and loved it, thought it was one of the best. Hope to go back one day.
Keep blogging, we love looking!
Cheers,
Sharon
