After a long day in transit I arrived in Wales on Wednesday night. It has been lovely seeing the Celtic rellies again. I have been sleeping in until 9.00am each morning which is great after 3 weeks of getting up at 6.30-7.00am each day. We drove out to Hay on Wye yesterday afternoon through beautiful green Welsh countryside. I visited several bookshops and managed to get four Chalet School titles - I now just have 2 to go to complete my full (unabridged) collection. We are all going out to dinner this evening and I am going to Bristol to stay with my cousin for a few days. She is on holidays and has suggested we do a few local trips around Bristol. I feel a bit touristed out after the cruise so that sounds wonderful.
