The Beautiful Colwyn Bay Area of North Wales

The glorious English weather continues, it has been wonderfully warm and sunny for the last ten days or so.  After all the snow and bad weather we encountered last winter we are not complaining.  Yesterday, we visited the professional photographic studios in North Wales to get some pictures taken of various new products and other items that are due to be put into our on line shop in the next few weeks or so.  After a morning at the photographer’s we had to travel north to the coast to visit a quarry to view some rocks and fossils (the joys of geology and palaeontology).

Our travels took us through the very scenic countryside of the Snowdonia National Park up to the Colwyn Bay area.  Although this part of Wales is only about one hour’s journey from our warehouse and offices we forget just how attractive the countryside is in this part of the world.

The view from the location on the coast was amazing, we could see right along the coast of what was Conwy Bay to the Great Ormes Head at the beginning of Colwyn Bay.  In the background, rising ominously behind us were the mountains of Snowdonia.  We were not to far from Bangor and in front of us we could see the Isle of Anglesey, it really was a great view and sometimes we forget just how beautiful this part of Wales is.  We have vowed to return to this area again before too long

We shall have to organise some field trips, so that we can spend more time in Wales enjoying the fantastic scenery.

In the meantime, it might not be quite so picturesque, but you are welcome to visit the Everything Dinosaur website: Everything Dinosaur.
