Caernarfon Castle.

The day started out kind of dreary -- we even had some sprinkles. But this castle was so fun even in the gray weather. (Although the weather didn't really help with the picture taking.)




This castle was so cool because you could walk up the spiral stairs to explore a section, then walk up and down a different flight on stairs and end up on a completely different part of the castle grounds. It was so fun!

This picture is totally blurry, (because it was so dark in the staircases) but it shows the steep stairs and the rope you have to hold onto to even walk up.





Afterwards, we found a cute place to eat and then had to use the bathrooms. I'm only telling you we had to use the bathrooms because this is what we saw in each stall.




No smoking, yet you can shoot yourself up with who knows what. (I know the "sharps" dispenser is probably for diabetics, but what kind of message does it look like they're sending?)

When we finished eating, the sun decided to come out. How nice! Right after we leave the castle with all these gray pictures, the sun decides to pop out. Couldn't it have come out just 30 minutes earlier?



These pictures are from the parking lot. It was right next to a little stream that lead into the ocean.




Oh, and here are some pictures of the signs as we were leaving. Do you see what I mean? You get caught up in reading "ARAFWCH NAWR" and then it's too late to read what the sign is actually trying to say!


And then my favorite photo of the day. These adorable elderly people were sitting on a bench by the castle talking away. I hope I'm that cute when I'm old.
