A pub lunch in Moelfre.The next day, we woke up early for the nearly 11 hour drive south to the Isle Of Anglesey in the northwest corner of Wales. There, we met our family, including my Mom, whom they had picked up from Heathrow that very morning; and their new German Shepherd puppy, named Max (another highlight of the trip). Over the next two days, we’d do some sightseeing and just generally enjoying family time.
