Caernarfon Castle
We left the hotel @ 6:30 in the morning. I was so tired I could barely keep my
eyes open. We drove through Dublin
arriving at the dock in bay number 24.
While we waited our turn, we were one of the last to drive onto the
Stena Adventurer, we ate our scones with butter and jam. We got off of the bus, on the fifth
floor out of ten inside of the ferry.
We walked up the green staircase that was really blue, to a table
outside of Teen Town on the seventh floor. There was an arcade, cinema, and several snackbars. Mom and I played Gin Rummy and Dad and
I walked out to the deck by the back of the Ferry.
Our destination was Hollyhead in Wales. We drove to Caernarfon Castle and had
lunch in a sunny plaza next to a very cool castle. The castle was huge and the staircases were like a stone ice
cream cone with a rope railing to hold on to. We saw the beautiful Princess Jean standing three stories up
on a ledge. We called to her
saying, “We are here to rescue you fair Princess.” We went to have ice cream. We got back on the bus and drove to our Hostel way up on the
side of a hill. There was one
problem, the bus wouldn’t fit up the steep narrow road, so we walked carrying
our packs. The walk was very hard,
instead of feet, I was left with “bloody stumps”, not seriously, but I felt
like that.
I am glad to have the top bunk with clean green sheets to
rest my head. Wales is a beautiful
country, and thanks to Dad who helped me type this.
