Rainy days

We were all g’d up this Saturday to catch the train to Cardiff, Wales. However the weather has been rather overcast and on occassion rainy. Into the 5th day of it now and I wish it would just crack it and pour down. So due to the forecasted weather conditions we suited up in thermals, wet weather jackets and walked into town to do another walking tour. By the time we got into the city we were very hot and the sun had come out. Wouldn’t you know it! So after having stripped off we fuelled up and set out. It think we probably did about 10 kilometres of walking. One of the areas that is really cool is the old Bristol Castle in Castle Park right next door to the shopping mall we frequent. Built in 1640 by the Normans it was later destroyed through an Act of Parliment. However you can see the remains of a keep that have been partially excavated. There is also a couple of old churches still standing. Again, I forgot to take photos of the church but Steve did capture the ominous looking weather rolling in. It never rained once while we were out!
