Half Day trip to Cardiff

Today I took the bus for an hour over to the country of Wales and to the capital city of Cardiff. Wales is right next to Bristol and though the bus was full of people and a bit stuffy, it was a good little trip. Cardiff Castle lies smack dab in the middle of the modern city of Cardiff. Though probably not the most impressive castle, it was the first British castle I've ever visited and it had all the components that I would have hoped for: castle, moat, high walls, battlements, towers, etc. It only lacked some knights and a few jousting tournaments. I'm sure they get around doing that at some time in the year though! Another beautiful sunny fall day that made the excursion well worth it.

Well, back to the books! There are more photos below!
