Inspired by the great explorers Ellie and Carl Fredricksen, join us as we travel both near and far to discover the adventure that is out there!
North Wales - visiting Aber Falls, Penrhyn Castle and the longest place name in the UK!
We visit Aber Falls (Rhaeadr Fawr in Welsh), one of the most dramatic waterfalls in Snowdonia (Eryri). Situated at the northern foothills of the Carneddau, the waterfall is part of Afon Goch’s (Red River) final descent to the Menai Straits. The river plummets dramatically from a height of 120 feet, crashing into a shallow rocky pool before continuing towards the village of Abergwyngregyn. @parceryri
Then we do what all middle aged people do; we head to a National Trust property!! Penrhyn Castle is the former home of the Pennant family. It was rebuilt between 1820 and 1837 for George Hay Dawkins Pennant on the proceeds of the North Wales slate industry and sugar plantations in Jamaica. @nationaltrustcharity
A quick stop in the pretty seaside town of Llanfairfechan for lunch at the Beach Pavilion and a view across the Menai Strait to Puffin Island.

A short trip across the Menai Bridge takes us, only briefly, to Anglesey (Ynys Môn) for the sole reason of visiting the train station with the longest name in the UK, Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrnrobwllllantysiliogogogoch or Llanfair PG to it's friends!
A huge THANK YOU to our YT friends, Wills and Rach from Postcard and a Pint for suggesting some great places to visit on our whistlestop visit to North Wales. Do you follow them? You should! @PostcardAndAPint
