Mar 10, 2005 - Place holder for map ploting

Hello anyone who actually reads this. I'm trying to set up the route that we took on our trip, but because we didn't stay in many of the places we visited I need to put places holders so I can show that we went back to the place we stayed that night. Laura

Mar 10, 2005 - Golden Hind Photos (01-17)

I'm going to be putting up a selection of photos from each day. Some days, like this one, I'll just be putting up a couple of the photos that I took during this day. This is because I feel that most people would be bored out of their mind looking at dozens of pictures of a ship. I am also at this point just putting up my photos. We should get around to Shawn's at some point. The point is, if you would like to see more photos of a location or item, email me and I'll let you know if we have any. Laura

In Welsh it is Castell Cas-Gwent. Boy that Welsh language is crazy. And that is one of the more normal spellings. Had some tea in the picturesque town of Chepstow and then decided to head further west to look for a cute little town with a B&B. We thought Cardiff, the capital city might be nice. We were wrong. It was very industrial, not cute at...

Apr 29, 2004 - Wick to Brigend

This morning we headed into Bristol and had a look around the shops before driving onwards to Cardiff. We crossed the Severn Bridge and arrived in Cardiff around 3.00 pm. We caught an open-top bus for an hour tour of the city and that was brilliant. There was a fantastic guide on it who pointed everything out. Cardiff was very easy to get around the Parking Building right in the centre of town, between the Castle and the Stadium. We had been keen to look at the Millenium Stadium but it was closed by the time our tour ended there. After...
