Today after breakfast, we will cross over the border into Wales where we will begin our visit with a trip to Llandudno, the quaint British seaside town on the North Wales coast. Here, if you are feeling brave, why not take part in the annual Boxing Day dip which entices people from all over the country to run into the sea, often in fancy dress! Later, we will enjoy afternoon tea including a glass of champagne or a cocktail. <br/> <br/> Note - If you plan to join the Boxing Day dip, changing facilities are outdoors with the use of gazebos that will be placed on the promenade where dippers can change.
