Georgiana Marcia Rolls’s 1844 diary of a North Wales tour sets off from Gibraltar and opens with “… we resolved to give ourselves up to enjoyment for three weeks quite independent of children and servants.” We’re feeling your vibe G 😉 #EYATravel #transcribing #holiday #diary

Mae dyddiadur Georgiana Marcia Rolls o daith yng Ngogledd Cymru ym 1844 yn cychwyn o Gibraltar ac yn agor gyda’r geiriau “… penderfynom ymroi i fwynhad am 3 wythnos heb blant na gweision.” (cyfieithiad) Rydym yn teimlo’r naws G 😉 #AEATeithio #EYATravel
