I will leave those who did the "walk" to comment on it. Fran, Charlie and the kiddiwinks and I went to Ogwen Cottage and walked up and around Llyn Idwal. half way round the weather was a bit unkind making us don our waterproofs for real. Fran and I looked for a path around the top end of the lake and finished up somewhere not far from the start of Devils Kitchen. The way was far too difficult for Emily aged 4 so we retraced our steps and waited for Charlie Robert and Thomas to catch up - they had been on a route which Robert had walked on a school trip last year. We all crossed the rough bit between the two paths to Devils Kitchen and arrived at the base of the Idwal Slabs to watch climbers dangling from the heights. It was then just a case of returning to the bus, some quick refreshments and back to camp.
Our walk - bear in mind little Emily who is (I repeat - only 4) did 3 miles with about 500m of ascent and no tears :-)
