End of Bangor

The end of Bangor

Alright ladies and germs

We went to Port Merion on Tuesday.  It was a village of pastel colored Italian villa houses done up in an amazing collage of yellows and pinks and peppered with the odd Greek statue.  Take a look.
And again. Ooooo.
One more time. Ahhhh.
Later I got separated from everyone and began to wander the nearby forest.  Here is what I found.
 Tree with coins stuck in it.
 Flower path
 Deceptively beautiful quicksand
Sideways Lighthouse

The great thing about this place (Portmeirion) was that there were no signs explaining anything.  The statues and exhibits just stood on there own.  Even the coin stump, which was just sitting in the middle of nowhere.

The next day, we went gorge scrambling.  It sounds like a great breakfast, but it is actually climbing up waterfalls.  I got to use my new boots!

On Thursday, we went to another castle (Conwy) and then went to on awesome concert called Mammaith I believe.  It was an Australian aborigine and Welsh music crossover concert.  I didn't understand one word.

Today was the final day, we gave presentations and had our final dinner at the Fat Cat restaurant.  Great fajitas.  On to Aberystwyth now, but I'm gonna miss Bangor a ton.

  1. That's true- signs suck. That's why I hate the zoo.

    Did you climb up the part with water?

    MAMMAITH!! THEY ROCK SO HARD!!

    Aberystwyth doesn't sound like a real place. When are you going to do studying, anyways?
