Northern Wales Atlantic

Monday 16th July, we went out of the Lake District early in the morning and detoured to Wales, to this seaside town of North Wales called Lluduno. Strange that Wales is part of Britain, yet the names of the towns are mostly unpronunciable! We first stopped at a town called Chester, at the border of England and Wales, before driving into Wales itself.

Once we entered Wales, we could see the sea on one side. Stretch after stretch after stretch of the white waters of the Irish Sea, part of the North Atlantic Ocean. Instead of the blue blue sea of the Mediterranean, the waters in this part is white and clear. A breathtaking sight!

We stopped at Lluduno to take in the beautiful scenery, with the hilltop houses and inns, the spectacular seaside and mountains, took a few pictures, before proceeding back to England.
