St. Cwyfan’s Church.
On our final full day in the UK, we checked out a little church on a tidal island and then drove off the island to admire some pretty charming towns on the way to and near Snowdonia National Park.

It was a 3:30am start the following morning for the ~5 hour drive down to Heathrow to catch our noon time flight home.

An exceptionally clear day over the east coast of Greenland. As an aside, Virgin Atlantic was a great airline. Had a better experience than on Emirates or even Singapore Airlines last winter. Props (May 2024).
