Going up Snowdon...

The week after holiday club I had the Monday off work and wanted to do something completely different, hence the decision to trek up Snowdon. I've climbed Snowdon many times but the last time was about 10 years ago when I was much fitter.


We went up the Llanberis path and it took us about 4 hours to get the top. There is a train that goes to the top but there's just something wrong about doing it that way, and it costs £15!

The views were amazing although pictures never really capture how amazing the views are.



The path is being restored at one point. I was quite surprised to see a digger over half way up! Curious to how it got there I did ask the workmen...it came up on the train.

Some random boots that Devi made me take a picture off!

After being to the top and back we stopped to have a little rest before heading off to find a cafe!

Although very tired at the end of the day was glad that we did it. Made me realise how much I miss my hiking days!

Most Chilled Out Wedding Ever!

The Happy Couple, Lee and Leigh, tied the knot at Oak Hill Chapel a few weeks ago.

I know Leigh as she was a ministry trainee at St. Cath's last year and I had the joy of 'looking after her', not that she needed much looking after :-) It was a delight to work together (and lots of fun!) and it never ceased to amaze me how God brought her to Tranmere from California via Hawaii!!!

I also know Lee from my Oak Hill days - he was in the 1st year when I was in my 3rd.

Several of us made the trip down from Tranmere...it was just really nice to back at college and catch up with other people I was at college with and some of the lecturers (Woody of course greeted me in his usual style!)









A really lovely day :-)
