Snowdonia and Sunshine!!

Snowdonia Mountain Hike – Sunday, June 26, 201 - So there was good news and bad news on this day.  The bad news was Kale hiccuped all night long, and still felt like crap, and was still hiccuping in the morning.  The good news was the weather forecast said the only risk for hikers might be a sunburn!  WAHOO!  The sun had finally decided to come outJ  After having breakfast outside (in the sun) we got ready for a long day of hiking.  We hiked Snowdonia, which was amazing, but Kale hiccupped the entire way up.  I felt bad for him, and was irritated by the constant sound of hiccups at the same time.  It was beautiful, sunny, hot, then cold and cloudy as we climbed higher and higher.  We saw lots of sheep.








 Here's Gwen - our gracious hostess, tour guide and Sherpa:)








 This is the Menai Bridge where we saw the chain of bras:

After the hike we went to a local farmers’ market.  It was set up in a tent.  Strawberries are in season here right now, so they gave us a basket and let us pick our own Strawberries.  Best strawberries I have ever eaten!  



We got home and Kale was still hiccuping so he decided to take a nap.  I decided to rest a bit, too.  When we woke up we made dinner and enjoyed our last evening with Gwen. She was our first Servas host and will be very fondly remembered:)  THANKS FOR EVERYTHING, GWEN!
