Wel ddaru mynd am dro i Lyn Padarn neithiwr droi yn “antur” annisgwyl! Nes i benderfynu mynd adra ar hyd Lôn Clegir sydd mynd dros y mynydd o Lanberis i Lanrug. Golygfeydd ffantastig (cynnwys hon) o’r top a fysan ni wedi cael gweld y machlud dros y Fenai ond ddaru ni ddim cyrraedd y top. Ar ôl troi gornel glywon ni “bang” a ges i ddim un ond DAU puncture! Stori hir ond ddaru ni adael y car ar ochor y ffordd a cael RAC allan i sortio fo heddiw. Felly heddiw wrth fynd adra nes i stopio i weld yr olygfa yma yn lle. Well, going for a walk to Llyn Padarn last night turned into an unexpected "adventure"! I decided to go back along Lôn Clegir which goes over the mountain from Llanberis to Llanrug. Fantastic views (including this one) from the top and we could have seen the sunset over the Menai but we didn't reach the top.After turning a corner we heard a "bang" and I got not one but TWO punctures! Long story but we left the car on the side of the road and got RAC out to sort it out today.So today on my way home I stopped to see this scene instead.#Llanberis #LônClegir #Llanrug #Eryri #Snowdonia #LlynPadarn #LlechiCymru #GogleddCymru #NorthWales #HoganStiniog

Un o’r cludwyr sydd yn cario cerrig lawr o chwarel Penmaenmawr i’r rheilffordd. Mae trênau dal i gludo cerrig o Penmaenmawr ar hyd y rheilffordd yn hytrach na gyda lorïau. Hyn ar ôl i Hanson fydda oddi filoedd i ail wampio’r seidings o be dwi’n ddeall. Da de!One of the shutes carrying stones from Penmaenmawr quarry to the trains. It’s trains rather than lorries that transport the stones. This is after Hanson spent thousands on revamping the sidings. Great eh!#Penmaenmawr #PenmaenmawrQuarry #FreightRail #Quarrying #NorthWales #GogleddCymru #HoganStiniog

(🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿Bilingual post - scroll down for English 🇬🇧🇬🇧)Un o’r “Black 5s” newydd ddod allan o Twnel Ffestiniog ac yn croesi’r Afon Barlwyd. Yr adeilad tu ôl ydi gorsef bŵer hydro Pant Yr Afon. Yn y cefndir gwelir unedau glampio Llechwedd a llinellau zip ZipWorld. Llun wedi’w dynnu o un o pileri yr hen Bont Goch. Oedd hi’n werth mynd i fyny i weld y trên yn fan hyn. Cyn gymaint o hanes i’w dadbacio yn yr olygfa yma. One of the "Black 5s" just coming out of the Ffestiniog Tunnel and crossing the Barlwyd River. The building behind is the Pant Yr Afon hydro power plant. In the background are Llechwedd glamping units and ZipWorld zip lines. Photo taken from one of the pillars of the old Bont Goch. It was worth going up to see the train here.

“Lle i enaid gael llonydd”*Es i roi blodau i Nain a Taid yn ddiweddar a tra oeddwn hefo Nain es am dro i’r hen fynwent. Mae na olygfeydd i gael o mynwenti ardal Stiniog myn diawl. * translates as “A place where the soul can rest” but to me it sounds better in Welsh. I went to give Nain and Taid some flowers recently. Whilst I was visiting Nain I went for a walk around the old cemetery. Cemeteries around Ffestiniog area have some great views. #LlanFfestiniog #LleIEnaidGaelLlonydd #Eryri #Snowdonia #Cemetery #Mynwent #YmaYrWyfIIFod #Adra #DwiIsioMyndAdra #HoganStiniog #BlaenauFfestiniog #Tanygrisiau #Moelwynion #LlechiCymru #WelshSlate

Eglwys gatholig Blaenau Ffestiniog. Dwi ddim yn grefyddol o gwbwl ond mi oedd Taid yn catholic. O be dwi’n ddeall, mi helpodd Taid adeiladu’r eglwys. Mae’r adeilad wedi newid yn y 10 mlynedd dwythaf. Mi oedd y drws ar yr ochor arall (ger y Queens) hefo’r pulpud lle mae’r drws rwan. Y rheswm dwi’n gwybod hyn ydi mai dyma lle oedd cynhebrwn Taid…. 10 mlynedd yn ôl. Blaenau Ffestiniog’s catholic church. I'm not religious at all but my Taid was catholic. From what I understand, Taid helped build the church. The building has changed in the last 10 years. The door on the other side (near the Queens) with the pulpit where the door is now. The reason I know this is that this is where Taid’s funeral was.... 10 years ago.#BlaenauFfestiniog #LlechiCymru #HoganStiniog

📍Heol Yr Eglwys, Blaenau Ffestiniog Edrych yn reit ddigalon neithiwr. Mae angen buddsoddi yn fan hyn nid jest yn nghanol y dre’. Mae canol y dref i weld yn reit neis rwan hefo’r pileri llechi, ac yr unedau lle mae’r tŷ coffi a’r chippy. Ond mae fan hyn yn bechod.📍 Church Street, Blaenau Ffestiniog Looking very run down last night. Needs some money invested here not just in the town centre. The centre where the slate pillars, coffee shop and the chippy is looks quite pretty. But here is just a shame. #BlaenauFfestiniog #LlechiCymru #WelshSlate #UNESCOWorldHeritage #HoganStiniog #Eryri #Snowdonia #Cymru #Wales #YmaYrWyfIIFod #ThisIsWhereIBelong #Adra #Cynefin #Home

Dwi’n cofio’r chwarel ar agor a mae’n ddigalon gweld y lle fel mae o rwan.Ddaru’r dreifar oedd yn mynd a ni i fyny ddweud bod o wedi dod a pobol yma oedd yn arfer gweithio yn y chwarel a bod nhw wedi torri lawr yn gweld ffasiwn olwg.

He used to work there.Heard a few people saying how awful the place looks now but I hadn't seen the place myself. The last time I was here was about 25 years ago. I remember the quarry being open and it's depressing to see the place as it is now.The driver who was taking us up said that he had brought people here who used to work in the quarry and that they had broken down seeing the state of the place.

Am ddyddiau hyfryd da ni’n gael ar hyn o bryd. Dim byd gwell i godi’n nghalon i na’r olygfa hon. Mae’r lle sydd yn dod a fwya’ llonyddwch i mi. Adra. What lovely days we’re having at the moment. Nothing better to raise my spirits than this view. It’s where I feel most at peace. Home. #YmaYrWyfIIFod #Tanygrisiau #BlaenauFfestiniog #HoganStiniog
