Two days after leaving Greenock, Scotland, Jewel of the Seas arrived at our next port of call — Holyhead, Wales. Holyhead is the largest city in the Isle of Anglesey County. But Ursula and I would not be in Holyhead for long, as we had yet another tour. From Holyhead we traveled east, then south to Caenarfon. We would make Caenarfon a brief stretch-your-legs photo and coffee stop before heading into Snowdonia. During this break, I managed a few shots centered on Castle Square, including Caenarfon Castle. On the left side of the castle image below is a statue of David Lloyd George, Prime Minister of England 1916-1922:
Opposite the castle, on the east side of the square, is the Castle Square Presbyterian Church:
Looking around the square you’ll find sights such as these:
Soon we were back on the bus and headed through Snowdonia National Park. Along the way we would stop for yet more photo opportunities:
On Wednesday I’ll show you a very picturesque Welsh town named Nant Ffrancon.
