A great day out !

Great tour ! There was so much packed in to the day: sampling local food and drink, visiting the castle, a guided tour of an art gallery, a guided walk of the heart of Cardiff, a boat trip, not to mention a relaxing train ride from London. An away day to wonderful Wales. Thank you Ild !
