Cardiff, Wales (Cymru)
Welcome to Cardiff! Hometown of my favorite dreamy Welshman.
The Cardiff skyline as viewed over the castle walls. Castell Caerdydd is located
in the middle of downtown — just walk across the street and you're
at the castle gates!
The flag of Wales — with that ubiquitous red dragon — flies high on a castle
tower.
Yes, all the street signs are in Welsh too!
Peter once remarked that Brains Dark was his favorite brand of beer. I had no idea what
that was until now. Seems it's the local brew — everywhere you
turn in Cardiff you can see billboards for Brains with the slogan "It's
Brains you want!"
(Yes, I am such a sad fan that I swiped these coasters from a pub, but hey, I was travelling
on a tight budget and they were cheap souvenirs — and I did resist
the temptation to find a phone book and look up the name Wingfield!)
