YOUR REVIEW

SnowdoniaFor the first week of the Easter holidaysI went to Snowdonia, north Wales. Itwas a great experience, I never thought Iwould see so high mountains in England& Wales! It looked like the Alps with allthe mountainside lakes. One of the daysit was so windy that the lakes had waveson them! I would very much recom-mend staying in this area, especially inBetws-y-Coed and Bala. It is also fun forolder kids as there is a go-karting circuit.

Lorenzo Montani, 9Well done Lorenzo, a Hop EB toy is on

its way to you!
