| Caernarfon Castle, historically the "home" castle of the Prince of Wales, shot from partway up the Eagle Tower. Prince Charles was invested here, and pictures and memorabilia are on display. Included is a throne crafted entirely of Welsh slate. | |
| The top of the Eagle Tower, Caernarfon Castle. | |
| Menai Bridge, shot from Yns Mons (Anglesey) looking back towards Bangor, Wales. One of two famous bridges built around 1820 by Thomas Telford. |
| The Menai Bridge and Menai Strait from further south on the Anglesey coast. At far right center is "Church Island." | |
| Ian at the Conwy side of Conwy Bridge, the other Welsh Telford Bridge, this one across the Conwy River/Estuary. (Castle is behind camera.) The "boxy" bridge in background is the railway bridge, also built to match the castle. | |
| Ruth at the Conwy Bridge, shot towards Conwy Castle. Conwy, like Caernarfon, was built in 1282-1330 by King Edward I. It and its town wall were the most complete of the castles we saw. |
| Walking the Conwy Bridge. The bridge was constructed in 1826, obviously made to match the castle. Tolls on the bridge ranged from 2 pence for walkers, 6p for a mounted man, to 30p for any vehicle not propelled by beast or pedal! |
