Llandudno

[poliphilo]

We went to Llandudno on a coach with Ailz's mother. It's strange; I've lived in the North West for over thirty years and this is my first trip to to North Wales.

Llandudno is the loveliest seaside town I know. An unspoiled early Victorian seafront, curving round a bay, with a high promontory at either end and mountains in the background. I took a lot of pictures. Here are a three to be getting on with

Beautiful! That's quite a dock in the last one. Is that a hotel at the end?

Very beautiful.

The long pier in the last picture is amazing. I love how the clouds slant down (or is it up?). And the light...
What an incredibly beautiful place. I love the houses on the mountainside.

The promontory in the background of your photos is the Great Orme, where I live. It's only a baby mountain, but you can get a cable car or tram to the top, which makes it very suitable for non-athletic walkers.

Amazing! Now I have to ask - how is the name of the town pronounced? Probably nothing at all like it's spelled, if it's typically Welsh!
