Today I missed my very first anything on this trip. Gen and I did not make our ferry this morning and although Gen thinks there is a connection between her and missing the boat, really we shoud've just checked when check in closed. Gen and I spent a fabulous 20 minutes in the ferry terminal knowing that our boat was just outside and that they weren't going to let us on. Luckily the weather is beautiful and we've been walking around listening to people actually speak welsh and sampling the delights of Holyhead. It is a nice little town with a 4th century roman fort(and an excellent internet cafe) but both food places we've visited have smelt absolutely rank (cigarettes and damp, we think). But as annoying as this was we've sorted everything out, we're into Dublin tonight and we've officially spent a day in Wales. Wales!
