Snowdonia (Idwal Cottage)

Ok, last blog before bed...hopefully these blogs will be more frequent and more interesting now that I will have consistent internet access until May 5th!  But as I am exhausted this post will be brief!

After what turned out to be a really fun drive through the Welsh countryside I arrived at Idwal Cottage around 3:30pm.  I knew the hostel was in a beautiful mountain range but I was stunned to find myself at the edge of the most beautiful valley EVER!!! It was a view from a fairy tale...which make sense as Snowdonia sounds like where Sleeping Beauty lives.  I was also pleasantly surprised to find that I had a private room, which after driving for four hours was amazing.  I took a million pictures but the fog combined with the sun washed a lot of them out...Good Night!!!

Hi My Cynthia,

I love your pictures! My favorites are the church in the woods, the horse and foul, and the picture with the moon. It looks so mystic. I think I'd love it there. I miss you bunches, and know your having fun. A fat, queen bee the floor was walking across the carpet so I smashed it. No bees, no bees, no bees, and no wasps either! Keep safe, eat healthy and play. Love you, Mom

Is that a "do not pass" line on a one lane road?!? The pictures are great, and i am enjoying the blog. Sure is a strange looking mountain goat-pony-horse-looking thing there...

Stay safe,
Jay
