After arriving in Cardiff, our first port of call was the market.
|
10:40:08
I think this was taken just after buying some Welsh Cakes. I like the way that the lasy behind Chie is smiling too.
|
10:44:12
This here is one of the outer walls of Cardiff castle.
|
|
|
|
10:49:07
We decided to take a tour of the castle...
|
10:49:19
Chie presenting the Norman "dungeon".
|
10:53:00
I think I mainly liked the little gargoyle thing which presumably spouts water when it's raining.
|
|
|
|
10:54:56
The dungeon again.
|
11:50:21
I think this is taken after the tour of the interiors (where we weren't allowed to take pictures unfortunately). So we're inside the Norman bit now.
|
11:51:49
Chie in the doorway.
|
|
|
|
11:52:04
Some of the other castle buildings seen from the Norman bit.
|
11:53:03
Another view through an arrow slit.
|
11:55:04
A picture of me with lighting problems!
|

|

After leaving the castle, we headed down to Cardiff Bay for lunch, and here's a quick picture of the Millenium building.
|
12:56:57
For lunch we went to a Turkish restaurant called Bosphorus. Here's our starter which was very nice indeed.
|
13:23:59
Me with the vegetarian main course of the set lunch - this was also very nice.
|
|
|
|
13:24:09
Me.
|
13:45:18
A picture of the outside of the restaurant, which is nice as it's out on a pier.
|
13:56:50
Chie outside the Norwegian church.
|
|
|
|
13:57:50
....and me in front of the Norwegian Church.
|
14:07:11
After a little walk around we went for a spot of ice cream - Cadwallader's has a little shop in the bay.
|
17:42:46
After leaving Cardiff, we went to Newport to get a lift with Robin back to Abergavenny. Whilst there we went to take a look at Newport's famous transporter bridge.
|
|
|
|
17:43:01
It's very nicely lit up at night but not sure if that really comes out in these pictures.
|
17:43:14
...a bit difficult at this distance to get the whole thing in!
|
17:44:19
It turns out Robin had actually designed this plaque, so I was keen to get a picture with him standing proudly in front of it.
