Of all the days to have a lie-in. The day we were travelling to Snowdonia. We woke up at 10ish. I've not done that in ages. Herman does that to you you know? The bed is so comfortable and it's so dark and cosy that you just keep sleeping. Anyway, the journey from the Peak District to Snowdonia was going to be 2.5 hours but instead we took a slight detour for a more scenic route down the A5 to Betws-Y-Coed. We are glad we did because the scenery is just amazing. Like the Peak District, Snowdonia is beautiful and lush green (that'll be the rain I guess) but with mountains instead of hills and lakes, rivers, streams and waterfalls are everywhere.

We arrived at the campsite and pitched under the trees right beside the river with the hope of spotting an otter. The lady in reception was talking about them as if they are a permanent feature like the squirrels and rabbits around the site. So, fingers crossed that we spot one and get it on video.
There is no phone signal at the site let alone WIFI or 3G so no blog updates for a few days and I won't be doing any fishing either. The fish in the river is trout and it's their migration period so fishing is out of season at the moment.
I've brought my telescope and it's very dark outside at the moment but the trees may be a problem so I may venture out in a bit.
