From Chester services we took the coastal route as opposed to the A55. we reached Rhyl at around 11:00.

After we got back into Rhyl bus station, we all walked up to the Seaquarium to where the coach was parked. We had time to have something to eat and to use the facilities before we got back on the coach home. On the return journey, as we reached the outskirts of Chester we hit traffic, the driver put it to the vote as to whether we stayed on course or tried to go around the jam. The passengers voted to go around the jam, and so we took the A51 back to the edge of Nantwich, taking this route meant we were able to see Snugbury's hay bale meerkat! at the edge of Nantwich we got onto the A500. When we reached the M6, we saw that the A500 was blocked and so we had to go south along the M6 to the next junction...2 diversions in 1 day! We eventually got to Longton Hall Road just as it was going dark.
