2nd part of the torch parade


When the torch parade reached the front it travelled up to the summit of The Great Orme and then returned to continue along the front It was really good to see so many people crowding the street to cheer on the Olympic Torch. Lots of staff from the hotels were watching from all the the hotel windows.

Initially the day started off really overcast but it was amasing how the sun just came out as the first torch bearer came into sight. From 10am there had been people parading in wonderful costumes, entertainers and the local brass band playing for the crowds on the promenade. Unfortunately I didn't get to see that but my German guests showed me the photos. They were really pleased to have seen the parade. (The things we lay on to entertain our guests!!!)
