Cardiff

As part of Josche's job he does a lot of travelling around England and Wales, as such we try to make the most of it by seeing the sights for a weekend where he had to visit a client on the Friday. This weekend it was Cardiff.

I jumped on a train from Paddington station in London to meet Josche in Cardiff Wales, after a 3hr train ride I arrived in sunny Cardiff, Josche drew himself away from the bar long enough to come and pick me up at the train station and take me back to the hotel to have a few beverages and chat with an Aussie couple (yes aussies are everywhere!).

The next day we bounced out of bed (OK maybe not me:-) ) and went to visit the castle, because it was the Queen's Birthday we got to watch the cannons being fired- very cool.

After celebrating the Queen's birthday we went for a walk and came across the Welsh Beer and Cider festival this was something we just could not walk by so we bought our cider and beer drinking glasses and proceeded to try as many beers and ciders as we had time for. We met a lovely welsh couple and spent a couple of hours chatting to them about the Rugby whilst listening to a welsh choir.

After our beer and ciders we went for another walk down to the marina where there where heaps of restaurants and bars. We also found Cardiff sailing club where there were lots of dinghy's out racing!

Once we had finished our exploring we headed back to the Train station for a trip back to London.
