Our hotel in Cardiff

The wiev from the hotel window

After checking in we have lunch at Nandos. Yummi Peri-Peri chicken at it best. Your choice of how spicy you want it I had it hot my brother medium. This is our new favourite restaurant.
Mermaid quay the waterfront. We walk around for a while but it's pretty cold and windy. After some walking we return to our hotel for some sleep.

The next morning we visit Cardiff castle.A castle with a history that dates back 2000 years to the Romans.

Cardiff is known for it's many Victorian arcades.


Later on we decide to go for a long walk to the small village Llandaff. It't such a pretty small village. With the Llandaff cathedral in the centre. The cathedral was badly damage during the World War 2. It takes us the wole afternoon to walk back and forth but it's really worth it.


Early morning we go on an excursion to Royal Bath the home to Jane Austen. Our prime stop is Roman Bath. On our way on my brother break the zipper on his raincoat he got to tear it up. Can't help it but I think is pretty funny he's not. Bath is a lovely town I could have spend some more time here. But we only have a day and it's really pouring down. My brothers raincoat is not working that well since the zipper still is broken. We start of with a walk to The Royal Crescent. Residental houses built beetwen 1767-1774 it's one of the greatest example of Georgian architecture too be found in Great Britain. A lot of films and tv shows has been filmed on this loccation.


Then it's time for one of the best museum during this tour. Roman Bath ia a well preserved Roman site forpublic bathing. It has natural hot springs underneath the city.




The next day our journey continues to Oxford the home to J.R.R Tolkien, CS Lewis and Lewis Carolle

Papa Beaver's story time

I finally found it the intro to Papa Beaver. The best show ever for younger kids during my time in the States 1996-1997. I get sentimental.

What happen to my holiday in Great Britain? My plan is to tell you more during the weekend. I have been so buzy with other things. House renovating for example.
PS We got the tickets to Miami, both the flight and car rental tickets.

Top five in the States

I like this song with Taylor Swift
