North Wales

We had a wonderful time in North Wales. It is such a stunning place.The boys had a great experience on the film shoot. They started the day in the snow at the summit of Mt Snowdon. Apparently the temperature was -10degrees,so just a wee bit chilly. The reason for being up there was to film brachiopod fossils which are  a type of marine shellfish.

The next destination was to the Sygun Coppermine to film the copper viens and snottites which are according to Wikipedia
 Snottite, also snoticle, is a microbial mat of single-celled extremophilic bacteria which hang from the walls and ceilings of caves and are similar to small stalactites, but have the consistency of snot.

So not only a great experience but educational as well.








We stayed in the beautiful Sygun Fawr Country House.



A beautiful place to stay and the dining was delicious. The beds were super comfortable and the view spectacular. I highly recommend this place to stay.
