Crossing the Menai Straights

Another good day looking around the area, this time over to Anglesey starting off in the small town of Menai Bridge to check out a charge point for future reference, looks fine and then spotting a Waitrose, (I know), looking for a sourdough bread for our picnic. The sun was shining with a good old breeze. We crossed the two bridges spanning the Menai Straights, one each way. The scenery is beautiful with a high tide occasionally crossing the highway.

The Menai Suspension Bridge (Welsh: Pont y Borth, Pont Grog y Borth), a suspension bridge designed by Thomas Telford and completed in 1826, it was the world's first major suspension bridge.The bridge carries road traffic and is a Grade I listed structure.

Britannia Bridge (Welsh: Pont Britannia) was originally designed and built by Robert Stephenson as a tubular bridge of wrought iron rectangular box-section spans for carrying rail traffic. Its importance was to form a critical link of the Chester and Holyhead Railway's route, enabling trains to directly travel between London and the port of Holyhead.

Our two pusscats are adorable, we are all settling into a routine.
