[personal profile] aunty_marion an I have been having a holiday of sorts, travelling hither and yon around North Wales to see various sights. Yesterday we went up the Great Orme on a tramway and had hot chocolate and a hot dog at the top. Lovely views.

On another day we went to a National Trust property called Plas Newydd in which is probably Rex Whistler’s finest work, a mural of a fantasy city on the dining room wall. It is so intricate that you could look at it for hours and still be finding new bits. It is fantastic, if you ever get a chance, do go and see it.

I was a bit confused, but it's the another Plas Newydd from the one where the Ladies of Llangollen resided in 'picturesque Welsh seclusion'!

I just had a look at the mural - amazing!
