We took a slight detour today into Wales. Mostly just so we can tell people we've been to all of England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales :)
It was a lot of driving, and we arrived here around 4pm. I was pretty zonked out, so I just hung out in the room (really soft bed!)
until dinner, then went to sleep after that... Hopefully will be a little more into thing tomorrow! I believe we'll be heading over to the
Cotswold tomorrow, where we'll spend two nights, then one night outside London, then we're booked in for five days in London before flying home!
One thing I've noticed about Wales is that all the road signs are in both English and Welsh, as well as a lot of the normal signs. I learnt that "aran" is Welsh for "slow" :) But Welsh is quite a difficult language - lots of consonants all strung together. For example, dinner tonight I had "Chwiski Salmon" (I think that's how it was spelled). The "Chw" is kind of like the English "wh" but with a sort of gurgling sound in the back of your throat... or something.
