Days 27 to 30 Wales and Windsor

Days 27 to 30 Wales and Windsor 


When:  17 to 20 August

Where:  Small town in Northern Wales and Windsor

Weather:  All over the place.  Wales was drizzly.  Windsor was an absolute deluge of rain (that I drove through) and then hot, and then variable with rain, sun, rain, and about 23C

What:  Mostly just touring around.  Seeing the sites of North Wales and Southern England.


Who:  Just us

Workout: At the hotel. Very nice little gym, but the ladies doing power aerobics to rap music was just a bit much.

Walking: 9.67, 4.38, 14.15, 3.63 km

Wine:  Still mostly NZ Sauvignon Blanc.  But 7 new types from all over at our pairing dinner.

We also went to a very nice winery in Kent and got some bubbles. 


Whine:  Our time in UK is coming to an end.

Whisky:  None really, but there was some in this nice bar:


Wtf: These were near the Monument to the Magna Carta.  No idea what they were supposed to represent, but reminded me of The Blair Witch Project.

Wild: The roads in North Wales.  I have dash cam footage that I will try to upload one day.

Also, Windsor is full of ‘baby roundabouts’.  Tiny little ones that are basically a metre circle in the intersection.  Its almost like having to relearn how to use these things!

Wildlife: Just these birds.  Countrymen of ours but I think they’re considered an invasive species:

Water: The River Thames.  I had no idea this was the Thames until I looked on the map.  Its so small west of London!


Wonderful: The room at the Fairmont Windsor Park. Just beautiful.  And two bathrooms!
