Day Tripping - Wales!

November 13, 2013  •  Leave a Comment

So a little while ago me and my partner decided to go for a break to Wales! We had never been before and decided we were going to go camping... On the way to snowdonia we decided to visit Pistyll Rhaeadr - the largest waterfall in Wales! When we got there it started thunder and lighting (typical!) but we still managed to get some photos!

 

So we headed onto Snowdon for the night, where we got totally lost, didn't arrive to our campsite until after dark and ran our battery out on our car... spent over an hour smothering ourselves in mud trying to put up a tent we had never had a practice run with before and then had the worst nights sleep ever!! Sounds like a nightmare but it was actually pretty hilarious (or maybe I went insane!!)

 

We didn't manage to climb Snowdon as there wasn't time, and our tent leaked overnight so we didn't want to stay another night but we had a lovely  walk and a fry up before heading home.

 

Hoping to go back when the weather is better and possibly get fit enough to tackle Snowdon! We learned many lessons on this trip - practice setting up your tent, leave your engine on when you use your lights to pitch the tent, arrive at the campsite when its still light, get a bigger tent that you cant actually lie down in (and that doesn't leak through the floor!), Make sure there isn't a marathon on the day you plan to climb Snowdon... I could go on!!!

Thats it! Baaah
