- Thursday night - stopped on way to have a subway meatball marinara because we'd always wanted one and this would be our last chance!! OMG sooo delicious. Arrived Moelfre put tent up - got a bit wet but not too bad. I love camping - love our king size airbed and the fresh air. Love sitting outside the tent on posh plastic chairs and drinking wine.
- Friday - visited Penrhyn castle
Kel's fav place - lew and I loved it. Best Bits - the audio tour, the Folly by the pet cemetery, the bog garden and the afternoon cream tea! Later went to benllech beach had doughnuts and watched lew throw himself in and out of the sea - it looked freezing! Had fish and chips at the tent - perfect! - Saturday - OMG what happened to the weather?? It was like camping from hell - mad mad wind blew the tent in on itself and lashed rain everywhere. Tried to stay inside the tent holding up the sides (hilarious) but gave up because getting drenched so sat in car watching all hell break loose on campsite! By mid morning we realised that no way could any of the beds dry off in time even if we could put up with the top of the tent blowing in right down to the floor! Put the tents down in the p*ssing down rain - never been wetter in our lives! We couldn't stop laughing - Kel couldn't see at all - glasses no good in sooo much rain! Our motto (stolen from Run's House) Team work makes the dream work has never been truer - how we don't fall out and argue is amazing lol
Drove off Anglesey hoping weather might be a bit better - we were wrong! Found a B&B in Caenarvon for £30 for a family room for the night. Checked out Dinas Dinlle beach where Kel used to stay when very young and on way back had stunning home made burgers in an expensive pub!
Money becoming scarce!
- Sunday - Lew opened all his pressies - very happy boy! Had amazing cooked breakfast then had lovely time at Caernarfon Castle - lew enjoyed himself once he was persuaded to be a bit independent. I Got very scared being so huge inside very tiny narrow stairwells and terrified coming back down the turrets. Thought about coming back next year when been on the Cambridge diet would be a good idea - would probably notice a big difference in experience. Went back to the Island in the afternoon so Lew could spend more time on the beach - fab day for all of us very chilled. Made our way home around 6 but decided to use the old historic route through the mountains instead of the boring A55 .
- Got home quite late - had very last Chinese meal and last fag before life changes tomorrow! feeling very nervous as well as excited! Bring it on!
The good life here we come!
