Cardiff and Glasgow

no photos but cardiff is an amazing place. parked in a street when I arrived and it was the street where my great grandmother had lived before she came to australia and the place I had to buy my parking voucher was the IT section of the University, so could get a cord for my computer so at least I can use it. saw a great exhibition of leonardo da vinci pencil sketches from the royal collection. makes travel worthwhile when you see interesting artworks. walked to cardiff bay for dinner one night and stayed at an Etap hotel, cheap (£32 for the room which can sleep up to 3) and new, but some of the fat people I saw would not have fitted into the toilet. they have hotels all over europe and UK but none in glasgow until July 07. Gave back my hire car and I caught the bus from cardiff to glasgow, pleased to do some knitting as I looked at the scenery. I stayed at the Alexander Thomson hotel, stayed there last year and its cheap and central to everything and the breakfast is really good. Found a few pieces of information I wanted for my research and couldn't find some as well. The Mitchell library has been updated and its very modern now. Last year it was all under cover in places.
I took Ryanair from Glasgow to Dublin and that will be the next story.
