528. Penmaenmawr to Bangor

September 2012 On this walk I am heading west into the Menai strait, the strip of water that separates the Isle of Anglesey from the mainland. Once again I was doing this as a long day trip from home in the South of England. That might sound odd but once again I had booked a cheap ticket, London to Penmaenmawr for £14 and Bangor back to London also for £14, so less than £30 return from London (such bargains are sadly long since gone), although that does mean I am committed to the specific trains I booked. This is the 08:10 train from London Euston to Chester and then I change there for another train to Penmaenmawr. Amazingly, my journey went smoothly, so I arrived on time at 11:20. Penmaenmawr is a request stop (it isn’t any longer) so I had the fun of getting the train to stop just for me, too. This is the first walk I did after the Wales coast path opened, so I am pleased to see after passing through the railway subway to get to the coast I spot a shiny new Wales Coast Path sign.…
