Please read the previous blog to see the earlier days of our Journey :)

On the final day of our journey, the man from the hotel told us about Dragon Theatre nearby.

We were going to go straight back to Cardiff, but we decided to drop by the theatre!

This building used be a local church, then it was refurbished into a theatre.

We felt a strange destiny because we did not know anything about this theatre until the kind man at the hotel told us about it.

Allison who works for the theatre welcomed us and kindly showed us around even though we did not have any appointment.

When we told her that we'd visited Trawsfynydd nuclear power station, she told us a story when an earthquake occurred in this area.

 

When it happened, a lady ran out of the door in alarm, shouting "Trousers gone off! Trousers gone off!!"

People wondered what she was talking about as they thought she was still wearing her trousers.

But what she really meant was "Trawsfynydd power station exploded."

This story, which Allison remembers clearly, tells that people had to live with such kind of fear in their daily lives, at least to some extent.

It was quite shocking for us.  I also didn't know that there was an earthquake in this area.

Thanks to her, our visit to Dragon Theatre became priceless.

It became one of our dreams to bring a show in this theatre one day.

Everything we saw during our journey to Anglesey island became part of my heart.

We all felt so much from sadness to beauty which constantly gave us power to proceed.

Now it is time for us to work on our story back in Cardiff!

Thank you so much for reading.
