Day 16 Conwy to Home

Our last day started with Conwy parkrun.  I won a box of chocolates at their weekly trivia quiz where we had to guess the length of the Conwy River in kms.  I was spot on with 55kms.  Really loved this scenic parkrun and got a good time of exactly 29 mins.

We went back for breakfast and left for home.  Our lunch stop was at Attringham National Trust property near Shrewsbury.  It was very hot so we just walked around the grounds and had our lunch before continuing home.

After breakfast we headed to Llandudno. It is a lovely traditional seaside resort with a wide promenade, pier and Punch and Judy.  We walked around the town and then to the pier.  There are a lot of tourist shops and kiosks all along the pier but plenty of seating as well. The cable car wasnt working, presumably too windy, so we tried to get the tram.  However there was about a 90 minute wait and the queue was right down the road.  So we walked along the tram route to the first station then headed off over the cliff We found a rock to sit on for our lunch stop and were joined by a female Wheatear. We went back to the town via a different route which took us past a toboggan run and a very nice park. The Punch and Judy show was in full swing. We returned for Fish and Chips in the evening at the excellent "Fish Tram Chips" restaurant opposite the tram station.   We had a drink at the nearby Kings Head and then walked around the town and the seafront before goi...
