Llandudno

Last Bank Holiday Monday I went to Llandudno in Wales. It was a lovely day but you probably can't tell that because I took most of these photos in the late afternoon.
The following day I went to Powis Castle. See previous post Powis Castle

I took this at the end of the day. I had taken a similar photo earlier on but the photo was really spoilt by the sheer number of people.

I took this while on the pier. Llandudno Pier is the longest one in Wales at 2,295 ft. And the fifth longest in England and Wales.

I went on the Great Orme Tramway. I got on it on the last leave. I went up onto Orme and the views were spectacular.

This is a photo looking down on Old Road. Look how narrow it is. Its closed to through traffic but it is used by road vehicles for access to properties.

I took this while on the Great Orme Tramway.

I took this on foot once I had reached the top. It shows the Llandudno Cable Car in action which is longest passenger cable car system in Britain. It runs from the Happy Valley to the Great Orme Summit (which is where I was). It was built in 1969 and fully overhauled in 2006.
