Off to South Wales
Thursday 29th December 2016
Slightly more involved journey than usual to South Wales as Paddington was closed, and we needed to get to the middle of nowhere! So a train from Ealing Broadway to Bristol Temple Meads, then picked up a Zipcar there and drove it to our home for the next two nights - a former WWII bunker near Usk. Bec, Dave and Jessica came to pay us a visit there shortly after we arrived.
