Do you know what happens when you mix two hours of sleep, rain, cold, and a 3 hour bus ride? Nap time and Wales!
On Friday, we went on a day trip to Wales. I had no idea where Wales was, but in case you are wondering, its that little part that sticks out to the west of London. On the way, we crossed a wicked long bridge. Our tour guide told us that on very special occasions, about once a season, the river swells and you can go surfing on the massive wave that comes barreling through! So amazing. It was a very rainy day- the sweatpants and hot chocolate, book reading, puzzle doing kinda rainy- and boy was it cold, but I have never seen anything more beautiful in my entire life. The hills rolled on as far as the eye could see and brightened up the day despite the dreariness.
We stopped off at a heritage museum, where we were given an hour to explore. A few of us decided to explore the surrounding area, so we went on an adventure. We discovered a beautiful little river with rapids and a wrought iron bridge. We wandered a little bit farther into the town and then headed back.
The pictures you see above are of Caerphilly Castle. Amazing, right?!
After the castle, we went to check out their parliament and then headed home. It was a great day trip!
Cheers!
