Holiday Inn Cardiff North

Well 7 weeks to GO!!!!


June is still busy buying clothes can't keep her out the shops. We are busy trying to set up all the systems we need in place and staff what they need to do in our absence.

Great finding so many people interested in what we will be doing and where we are travelling to.

Just want to get Junes problem sorted at the hospital they are messing us about. Got heavy with them today.

Watch out for the next update.

Friday:
Well, today is the big day, where I fly out to Utah again. This is gonna be another big adventure as I am flying out to make a film, or star in one I should say.
While I was over in Utah in the summer seeing old friends from BYU, where I studied at, I met up with my best pal and roommate, Jerry Garcia.

... gathered around the auto, with one of them translating to me that the auto driver wanted 120 rupees:

‘I understand that he wants the money but he shouldn’t have left the meter on. I know we agreed 120 rupees but really it’s only meant to be half that price so.........’

‘NO. 120 RUPEES. YOU PAY ME.’

‘ummmmmm.....No . That’s not going to happen sorry. Tell you what, I know that we originally agreed 120 rupees, so what ...

... buildings, etc from a lot of different time periods, all in the one woodland area. So that was pretty interesting too. We chose another campsite from our (so far) pretty handy 'Campsites in Wales' brochure, arrived just before 6pm, and settled in for the night. Next morning we were going to go to Swansea, but changed our minds & went to the Gower area instead. It wasn't very fruitful, but we did go to the ruins of a castle in a place called Pennard which had us ...

... North American style places like Pizza Hut. No matter how hungry you are!) First impressions of the city - kinda dirty. We've seen a lot of night life signs, promoting partying until 9 am, but nothing seems to be open now! Apparently, they only come out after dark, dun dun dun! Oh, and there doesn't seem to be a single garbage can anywhere, it must be a conspiracy. Our great-deal hotel ...

... site of Wales’ largest castle built in the thirteenth century. Even now its monstrous size still conveyed a foreboding air of impenetrability to two would-be marauders brandishing cameras, and the grey, drizzly conditions and lack of other visitors only added to the haunting atmosphere.
