Oxwich Bay Hotel Swansea

Back at the St. Brides Spa Hotel in Saundersfoot.<br>Unfortunately, winter doesn't make this the best place to stay. It's dark when you are at the hotel, so you don't get the views. And the spa doesn't stay open late enough in the winter. At least I will get to enjoy it over the weekend.<br>And the walk along the coast - kind of scary in the dark. But you do get to see a bunch of stars and parts of the Milky Way because there isn't much light pollution out here.<br>

A pretty well preserved castle. <br><br>One of the main towers was closed for some work, so I didn't get to climb everything. And the other tower is reserved for bats.<br><br>Did have an interesting little chapel.<br><br>Good views of the castle across the water.<br>

... Lez for remembering the password from last year, how impressive is that, I'd forgotten even making the account, lol! Anyway, the user id is evansholiday, and the passwrord is evans1. Just don't forget to tell us who you are! <br><br>Right, back to synching my i pod.......<br><br>Next report from Vegas or Salt Lake City! <br>

OK, here we go again, sat in Lyn's office trying to sort everything out. This year's trip has proved even more complicated to arrange, especially as we're flying out of Gatwick and back into Heathrow. We never like to do things the easy way! Also the dollar hasn ...

... a great surprise. Then the thought "Oh ****!, Hes going to make me walk the Inca Trail!" Not to worry, theres plenty of time to talk him out of that crazy idea!<br><br>So anyway, Simon had saved enough airmiles to fly us to Lima Business Class. I am a complete convert, and have been totally spoiled. I will NEVER fly Cattle again! Unfortunately Im not sure my bank manager will disagree. There was enough room for my ...

... t comfortable signing off on us riding on the beach. But we could go for a hack through the woods. Figured that was better than nothing.<br><br>Man it was a miserable day...raining and cold all day. Pretty much from when we entered Wales, it was raining on us...maybe Scotland will be better? The forecast calls for no rain, but it's still supposed to be cold, so wish us luck<br>

... excavated as well as the museum which had some interesting things in it. I wouldn't want to stay in this town for a really long period of time as there is not really that much there. It was very cute and quaint though.<br> <br> We then set off for London and arrived late afternoon where i said good bye to all my new friends and headed off to Fulham to stay with Jade for a few nights before setting off again.

... stay was at Llandeilo so took us by Carreg Cennan castle, an evocative castle ruin perched spectacularly atop a crag overlooking the Towy valley. Beneath the castle are subterranean tunnels that you can explore. Torches can be hired from the visitor centre.<br><br>On to Llandeilo. We booked into the Cawdor, an old coaching inn, and left my precious steed in the back of the ...

217 days ago was the last time I took a test. In an hour, I'll have my first test since May. One test in an entire semester, out of all my classes. Its pretty crazy. Its funny.. I forgot how it feels to take a test. Debating now if I studied the right material, feeling quasi-confident about it. The last minute jitters. Just pretty eager to have the test and get it done with now. Off to catch a bus, and take a test!

... had a castle. So, we took a bus from the City Centre to the bus station where we got on another bus to take us out to The Mumbles. We stopped first in Oystermouth since it was north of The Mumbles and we were going to to go Oystermouth Castle. So, we climbed the little hill to the castle and it was closed! A castle was closed on a Saturday! We couldn't believe it! So, we just stayed up there for a few minutes taking some pictures of the view. We then ...
