LLANDUDUO NORTH WALES

 On our tour of Great Britain we spent two nights in the seaside town of Llanduduo, North Wales.  The town, with its crying seagulls and dilapidated stores, had a different feel than the other places we stayed, as if it might best have belonged in a movie of intrigue.

Wales is a dual language principality, and most of the signs are in both Welsh and English.  The Welsh words sometimes appear to be simply a random string of letters that, as we were told, often have entirely different sounds than their English letter counterparts.  In short, forget trying to pronounce a Welsh expression.

Our hotel, supposedly the best in town.

The Welsh flag, sort of.
