We went to Mars.

So today we said goodbye to our dear friend and hostelmate, Allison. It was truly a sad moment. 
Especially considering that she has been replaced by 3 men in our room. 
Lovely. 

After our sad goodbyes our local tour guide, Rhys Llywd took us on over to Anglesey. 
That's an island off the coast of North Wales (it's where Kate and William live...check it!)
just a little fyi...Anglesey is known as "The Mother of Wales"

We went to Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch.
Yes, it is a real place. 
Yes, that is really the name. 
No, I cannot pronounce it. 

Then we went to Llangefi to try and get some interviews, we weren't having too much luck on our own so Rhys took us to someone he knew that owned a bookshop.
It turned out to be probably our best interview yet! 
He gave us a lot to work with, we talked about pretty much every topic we were asked to hit on! 
And he had a lot to say about everything! 
It was great!! 
(and it was quite in his little shop...no dang seagulls!)

Then we went to Mynydd Parys, which is an ENORMOUS abandoned copper mine. 
It was like we were on a different planet....it was CUHRAZY. 
But it was soooooo cool!!
(dont worry babs i got some cool rocks for ya!)

All in all it was a nice and leisurely day.
Some how, Im not sure how, but those always seem to be the most exhausting of days...am I right?
Im right. 

Well Ill leave you all to ponder the deep thoughts I've just laid down for you. 
Go ahead...Ponder. 

(and Im sorry, I tried to post some pics but it wouldn't work...so just check out fb!)
