Premier Inn Swansea - City Centre

Well - being in Cardiff was good since it is the closest airport, being on a 2-hr drive to the hotel. But had to wait about an hour for the rental car place to open up.<br><br>At least I got to go through the visitor information brochures and grab a bite at Burger King.<br><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 ...

We woke up in our swanky hotel room the day after our fantastic wedding. We had spent two days celebrating with all of our closest freinds and family. It had been an emotional roller coaster of a weekend (for me anyway) and we were both exhausted... Today was going to be excruciatingly long and hung over!... <br>Simons only job during the preparation was to organise the honeymoon and keep the destination a secret ...

... 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>

... day and was nice to walk around the little town with a massive castle in the middle (you would think I would have had enough of castles by now but no they are still cool).<br> <br> We the stopped off in Callyan (not sure if that's spelt right) which was nice for a change as it actually was a roman stronghold and thus still has some remains from this era. We went and had a look at the roman baths which had ...

Of course, the ideal way to pass the day after a 100km mountain bike ride is to walk up the highest peak in the Beacons, so after a lovely cooked breakfast at the Canal Bridge Café, we loaded up the car then parked at the bottom of Pen y Fan and set off to walk up. It's not that bad a walk, and the views are great: typically Beacons, with big, rolling, grassy hills.<br><br>Our ...

... Mom are here. I'm sorry to see everyone go, and I am LOVING life here, but I cant change time.. just enjoying it all as it comes and looking forward to the future instead of being sad over the past. I dont want to spoil today with thoughts about yesterday or tomorrow. I'm here now, and the sun is shining, and life is beautiful.

... creeped myself out. There was a guy who was cute and I noticed that he kept looking at me as well. Which would have been great...if he didn't look as if he was 15 years old! And that is what was creepy!! I said to myself: "Self...that guy is probably 15 years old...don't look at him or think of him like that! Talk about a pedophile! Talk about robbing the craddle!! Gross!" So, we finally finished the tour and went through the gift shop as well. We ...

... doing a tour of the interior and wandering its grounds. Castles have to be one of my favourite things about Europe. Grand, ornate cathedrals don&#8217;t do it for me, old Roman ruins don&#8217;t usually do it for me, but exploring around grey, crumbling stone turrets and walls set behind a wide moat never feels to arouse my interest. So on leaving Cardiff we very soon stopped at the nearby town of Caerphilly ...
