Penrhyn Castle – near Bangor.
February 3rd, 2008 | 
Author: We went there today, with a few people from Woodfolk, to see the snowdrops and Daffodils.
Although only the gardens and tea rooms were open, it was a well spent afternoon, dispite the high winds, and rain at the end of the day, and I really recomend going to them if you have the chance.
The three small ponds had snails and interesting plants in, and Asha got to see Matting toads, and frogspawn. She also saw water snails, lillies and other wildlife.
It was great getting to go around with P, as he works there, he was able to direct us and tell us all about so many of the trees, the beech, redwood, and laurel, are three trees I have learnt more about today.
We also discussed the tree which queen elizabeth planted.. but I cant remeber what it is.
Asha got to look closely at snow drops, daffodils, crocus, Primrose, and other plants. We also looked at a tree heather, which I am intrigued about.
Loads of walking, and If Asha was asleep I would be asleep now.. but a great afternoon.
