Me at Hand

Llangolin and Hand Hotel in Wales


Carrie in Hand Hotel

 

     Our tour landed at Holyhead, Wales. We meet our new, and favorite, bus driver...Derrick (Decker). We past the town with the longest name in the world. Jonathan said the Gaelic name as best he could and did an excellent job!

Note: In Gaelic the Ll is pronounced KL

The name is Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch!

(Funny...why won't my spell checker take that name! Haha!)

     Our tour led us past Snowdonia National Park, into a valley between beautiful sweeping mountain sides to the town of Llangolin. 

    The town Llangolin was quite charming. A song fest was going on at the time we were there. I couldn't help myself but to open the window before going to bed and sing out into the quiet rain-filled streets songs of tenderness. Wonderful experience!

 

Every small town I entered in Great Britain had a memorial to commemorate those who perished in WWII.
