Snowdonia National Park Was there last week. Portmeirion was lovely. The views from Harlech castle were spectacular. The steam train up Snowdon was fantastic but couldn’t see fuck all at the top due to the clouds. Did the Velocity Zip wire at Penrhyn Quarry, fastest zip wire in the world apparently...
