A Week of Success

Since last Sunday's adventure, E and I have had quite a week. Other than a rescheduled class completely interrupting our Monday afternoon, we have seen and visited some pretty spectacular places and done some really fun things:

After waking up to a beautiful sunny sky and pristine ocean view, we finally got Swansea City Library cards. Yeah we were pretty excited!












The Swansea Museum, which wasn't all
that great except we saw Hor's real live mummy.
It was actually kind of scary, but once E and
I find out why Swansea is so obsessed with Egyptology we will let you know. We are still both confused on why Egypt history keeps popping up everywhere ;). After which we stopped in a cafe for afternoon tea... Orange-Mango-Cinnamon tea at D'lish Cafe receives 5 stars!





The next day, we went on a long bike ride around Mumbles and into the Gower. With each adventure we get farther and farther around this incredible peninsula, the scenery taking our breath away every single time. We just wish that pictures could do it justice; unfortunately you all will just need to see for yourself one day:





I just couldn't get enough of this little old couple. They were so cool!










E is always so patient with all my picture taking!



 

Snack to enjoy the view!

Afternoon tea at The Front Room Cafe - Mandarin Orange Tea... 5 Stars


And finally a celebratory toast after a hard days bike ride.
The views were worth every single hill!

 So, now we are headed in to the weekend - hopefully something fun in store! Until next time.

  1. Saralynn - After visiting the British Museum years ago and seeing all of the things they carted out of Egypt many years ago, we wondered why we should go to Egypt - it looked like the British stole it all ages ago- go figure!!! I'm certain Egypt would like to have their treasures back . . .
