Lovely CONWY, twenty miles east of Bangor, is backed by a forested fold of Snowdonia. The town boasts a fine castle, a nearly complete belt of town walls and a wonderful setting on the Conwy Estuary.

My suprachiasmatic nucleus has already taken a hit (sorry, nerd moment), but I imagine if you talk to me in a day or so I'll have even more issues. Yesterday was a good start to the trip - sharing cheesecake with one's best friend and having complete and utter control over the radio/CD player (bwa ha ha!) is pretty much ideal in my mind.
