Well we're back from another long weekend of walking, and again it was great. Although it hasn't got any less tiring! The weather was quite hot, being 27 degrees celcius on both days. We have completed another 21 miles, which brings the total to 38.
On Friday evening, we started where we stopped last weekend, at the carpark at the base of Penyclodiau. From there we crossed over Moel Arthur, Moel Llys-Y-Coed and Moel Dywyll and ultimately Moel Fammau on Saturday.
On Friday, after a long day of school, Daisy's favourite part of the journey was when we got to the accomodation. We stayed at The Griffin, a traditional inn located in Llanbedr-Dyffryn-Clwyd, whose food, service and accomodation were all excellent.
Daisy and Amber's favourite part of the weekend was climbing up Jubilee Tower, even though the visibility wasn't the greatest, we were still able to see Liverpool.
Saturday night was spent in Llangollen where we stayed at Bryn Meirion. A tranquil B&B which overlooks the steam railway and Llangollen Canal. Many thanks to the kind host and hostess.
Sunday brought another bout of hot weather. Fortunately for a good few miles we were hidden in the shade of the Llandegla forest, but then it was out into the open again, as we made our way to World's End and onto traversing the Eglwyseg Crags.
We're all looking forward to starting the walk properly on Sunday, having done some miles already has made the excitement even greater.
On the path we met lots of people who were very generous and kind. Thanks to all those who stopped for a chat and thanks to all who have donated. Scope will benefit a great deal from all the support we have gotten so far, and we really appreciate it.
