Write Up The Mints Were Out Today

[Mint]

As the forecast was for a decent day, I put a route together for a drive out. So, after a quick wash (the Zed not me), the picnic and flask were packed and off we went. We decided to go West into Wales today rather than to our usual playground, The Peaks. Across to Lake Vyrnwy via Newport and Shrewsbury for our picnic overlooking the Lake. Then North to Bala and a circuitous route up to The Ponderosa Cafe at the top of Horseshoe Pass for a cuppa. Then home via Loggerheads and Meaford.
We covered just shy of 200 mostly roof down miles. A great Zedding day

A few pics from me and the moving ones from @Mrs Mint ...

Wales or the Peaks tough decision - sounds like you are perfectly placed
