Description

Compilation reel of family holiday scenes in Llandudno: out and about on the Great Orme, enjoying a ride on a miniature railway, then out on sea on the ferry. The family visit the beach, eat strawberries and ice cream at an outdoor café, and look at the plants in a greenhouse; they also attempt horizontal rock climbing, with the camera tilted. There are scenes in a sunny garden where adults and children relax and lark around, and a visit to the HQ of Whitefield Garrick Society, featuring members drinking tea, chatting and sitting in a meeting. The reel ends with more holiday footage from Llandudno.
