Llangollen

A return to Llangollen after 3 years. Starting early we took in a walk past the old Abbey, and round the Panorama Walk to Castell Dinas Bran. As we finished this just after lunch we decided to do another short walk, just up the road past the Horseshoe Falls and along the Velvet Hill.
Very sunny, very humid and we were very tired by the end of it all.
