Day 8 of the spring break and time to head home. But not before I visit one more Castle.
Kenilworth castle in Warwickshire. An interesting place with some very interesting history.

Menai. Straight.
No sun as I head-off on day 7 of my Spring break. Today will be spent traveling along the banks of the Menai Strait – first stop, Caernarfon Castle.
Angle-seen
Spring Break, Day 6. I spent the day on Anglesey and managed to see everything I wanted to see on the island. First, the breakwater at Holyhead – the longest in Britain at one and a half miles.
More Ups and Downs.
Day 5 of the Spring Break. Bodnant Garden first – another National Trust property.
Stepping Up (and Down) to the Challenge
Spring Break – Day 4. Time to tackle Anglesey for the first time and to begin with, the South Stack Lighthouse.
I’m Not a Number!
Day 3 – The destination carefully chosen as this as Bank Holiday and also the weather is potentially very changeable. I settled on Portmeirion – the location used for the Prisoner TV Series.
Raindon?
Day two and after the 300 mile journey yesterday, I was not going to drive too far.
Last time I visited the area I took the train up to the top of Snowdon. What I didn’t realise then was how much more there was locally. This time I visited the Padarn Country Park at the foot of the mountain.
