It didn't look worth the 6 pound entry fee, so here's the low-budget photo. Not bad. . .
Now onto the good stuff. Any guesses to what the blog title says? Here's a hint:
Welcome to Wales - land of much beauty, friendly people, narrow roads and the most foreign language I've ever laid eyes (or ears) on. For instance, to pronounce the double "LL", you need to almost make the jowls of your cheeks shudder while saying "SHH". Anyway, difficult to explain and even more difficult to say. Monique aptly said it this way: Welcome to Dolgellau, Machynlleth, Trallwng and other names we can't pronounce!
We enjoyed a late lunch in Welshpool (that one's easy) and visited the tourist center. It was there that Monique had a revelatory guidebook find that transformed the way we found our nightly accomodations. It's called "Stay on a Farm!" 
For those of you who don't know, I've always wanted to live on a farm (if only for a short while) in order to have a horse. Could this be more perfect? The woman at the center gave us a recommendation, I called the number and it was set. We were to stay on a farm in Dolgellau, a short hour drive from Welshpool.
