Penrhyn Castle ~ Part 2 ~ The Setting #Photography
From its elevated vantage point, the views from Penrhyn Castle are spectacular and far reaching. From the seascape (when the tide’s in) to Llandudno Bay and the Great Orme to views over the Menai Strait and Anglesey, or inland to Snowdonia, whichever way you look there are stunning vistas.
Walking the Belgian Promenade ~ Menai Strait #Anglesey #Photography #SundayBlogShare
The Belgian Promenade is so named because it was built by Belgian war refugees. More than sixty refugees, men, women and children, fleeing their German occupied home town of Mechelen arrived on Anglesey towards the end of 1914. They showed their appreciation for the help, accommodation and welcome provided by the local people by building the promenade, which was finished in 1916. The pathway follows the Menai Strait from the town of Menai Bridge to Church Island, as shown on Google Earth.

Her doctor sends her to a leading child psychiatrist whose pompous attitude and treatment of Jake she disliked intensely. Continue reading
