Llandudno's Best Attractions

By Samia Jones

With many great attractions suitable for all ages Llandudno is North Wales best tourist resort. For teenagers and young adults there is dry skiing on the Great Orme, ten pin bowling at Llandudno Superbowl, and trip's to the cinema, as well as plenty of bars and pubs. For younger children you can enjoy a fantastic day out on Llandudno beach or ride to the summit of the Great Orme on Llandudno's stunning cable car ride which is the longest in Britain. If a more sedentary lifestyle is for you take in the view on Llandudno's picturesque promenade, have some fine tea and scones at Badger's Tea Rooms, and take advantage of the finest shopping facilities in North Wales at Parc Llandudno.

Llandudno's beautiful promenade is framed beautifully between the two spectacular headlands known as The Great and Little Ormes. Llandudno promenade's is lined with Victorian hotels and the character has been carefully preserved over the decades by Llandudno's town council. None of the usual tourist shops and amusement arcades that you'll find on most promenade's are present on Llandudno's promenade resulting in a truly relaxing and very pleasant location to enjoy Llandudno's beautiful bay.

For a relaxing walk and excellent views of Llandudno and the Great Orme take a stroll along Llandudno's Victorian pier. A small number of stalls are dotted along the pier selling a mixture of tourist items and there's plenty of attractions for children from amusement arcades to rides. There's excellent views of Llandudno's promenade and Happy Valley from the pier and if you look closely you'll see the cable cars heading to and from the Great Orme summit.

Travel from the foot of the Great Orme in Happy Valley to it's summit on Llandudno's cable car ride which is Britain's longest. Up to four adults or two adults and two to three small children can ride in each car. The Great Orme Summit Complex has views as far as the Snowdonia mountains and Anglesey to the west. You can also explore the visitor centre, amusement arcade and children's playground at the summit.

Take the Great Orme tram to the summit which is just a short ride from the town centre. With open windows you'll travel in style from the base station to the summit. The tram is a great alternative if it's too windy for the cable cars or you dislike heights. At the half way station a small exhibition shows you some of the history of the trams in Llandudno.

Also on the Great Orme close to the summit are the Great Orme Copper Mines. The mines show what life may have been like for early settlers in North Wales and are believed to be over 4000 years old. Have a look around the tunnels and caverns chiseled from the rock millennia ago on the guided tour as you learn the history of this fantastic attraction.

For the younger generation there is ten pin bowling at Llandudno Superbowl back in the town. The Superbowl has a fully licensed bar and food is available from the cafe. If you fancy some skiing take a walk through Happy Valley to Ski Llandudno with its alpine lodge and dry ski slope. The toboggan run is also here and is fun for all the family as it weaves around the slope.

If it's raining outside you can always catch the latest blockbuster at Llandudno cinema. Located around 10 minutes by car from Llandudno town centre the cinema is ideally situated close to the A55 for all the surrounding area. If you're hungry there's plenty to eat with a variety of restaurants next to the cinema so why not make a night of it. Speaking of the night's Llandudno has a host of bars and pubs to visit. Most of the action takes place on Upper Mostyn Street and most venues have live acts on a regular basis.

Learn How to Play the Guitar in 5 minutes!

By John Edward

Yep, you would be surprised at what you can learn from just a few minutes of your time. The guitar has been around for centuries, and during this period there have been some magnificent professionals to give us some of the ultimate sounds of the music industry.

If you want to start a career in the guitar world or maybe as a hobby, it takes patience, dedication, and commitment. Plus, you'll also have to account for the physical effects as well.

The first thing that you'll notice is calluses. It happens to every guitar player both new and old, so get used to them. Remember, the strumming of the strings is relentless and there are going to be some "hard labor" going on with your hands. Plus, we promise you the shoulders will get sore.

It doesn't matter who your idol is at playing the guitar, everyone started at the beginning. They had to deal with everything you're going to have to deal with each time you play.

Before you learn how to play the guitar, you have to know how to tune it. In order to produce good sounds, your guitar needs proper tuning. The first step is to tune the lower E string, which is at the bottom. Next is the A string (2nd from the bottom), D string (3rd from the bottom), G string (fourth from the bottom) and B string (5th from the bottom). The last string to tune is the high E string. You can also use electronic tuners; these are available at most any music stores.

You can pay the music store to tune your guitar for you. However, it really is a skill that you should learn on your own. Otherwise, you'll be spending a lot of money on having your guitar tuned. You can ask someone at a music store to teach you how to tune a guitar. They may do it for free, or they may charge a small fee. It is worthwhile to learn because you'll also ensure that any time you're ready to play, your guitar will sound its best.

After you've properly tuned everything, learn to read the guitar tabs. You can find tutorials for this all around the Internet, and to be honest, most of them are accurate. Just place your fingers on each string, then strum the guitar using the other hand. It's going to take some practice, so don't think you'll be a master after one evening. Just make sure you start out playing easier chords because it will help in the long run. The simple ones are C, G, and A.

Alright! You're now ready to play the guitar. Did it take you five minutes to read this and position the fingers? Hopefully it did, and now you have yourself a new hobby. Happy Playing! - 18423
