I thought I would share with you some pictures of where I live.....
This is Llandudno....
Image no 1 is the promenade in the snow, No 2 is the bay from the Great Orme and No 3 is the West Shore from Marine Drive (Great Orme).
Llandudno is on the North coast of Wales and the town is found between two headlands - the Great Orme and the Little Orme. The town grew mainly as a Victorian tourist resort and many of the buildings are Victorian although there is a bronze age mine on the Great Orme.
The name Llandudno is a Welsh name Meaning Church (Llan) of St Tudno. It is pronounced with the welsh double ll which doesn't easily translate into an English sound but is somewhere between L and Cl.
Most of the attractions here are summer based for the tourists and tend to be traditional such as a Punch and Judy show and cable car rides, but there are more odern additions which J really enjoys like the Ski slope and the Taboggan run.
All in all, I love it here and I hope you have enjoyed having a peek into where I live - I challenge you to do the same.
I can remember being taken to LLandudno one winter with my family as my step-dad wanted to fish. Not an ideal occupation for a 13 year old girl. It was wet, cold and miserable and everything was shut..even the cafe in a train (hope that makes sense). It is nice to see it as it should be. Pretty as a picture: amazing how getting a it older makes you appreciate things a bit more!
