It doesn't ALWAYS rain in Wales...

I promise. It really doesn't. It was clear most of last week and all of this weekend! However, clear weather means colder temperatures... So, we were still all bundled up! Wow, a lot has happened since my last post! Basically, most of our school stuff finally got sorted out, we have some stuff to catch up on (the classes here are over the entire year, not just one semester) and a couple classes start this week instead of last week! So, we will definitely have lots to do this week, school-wise, and we have some fun adventures planned for the weekend!!! Now for the fun stuff of this week :) Since Cristina has been sick and Jessica decided to also get sick, we didn't do a whole lot of exploring, but we still did some! While Cristina was still recovering, Jessica and I, along with our flat mate Kate and her friends from home (now our friends :)) Cat and Sally, went to the local museum [which was free! woo!] It was really cool, they kind of had a mix of everything. They had teapots, sculptures, paintings, Welsh history [but of course!] and some natural history. The building itself was beautiful. Here are some fun pics from that afternoon :)





















Awesome clock on the city building next door :)

Dutch Porcelain :)



The clock tower glowing with the setting sun.

Yesterday, Cristina and I did a little bit of adventuring and found some photo-worthy spots :) Here's what we found!





Really? a mattress in the middle of the sidewalk?? haha

I love bright colored doors :)
That's all for now... more to come in a couple of days!
Cheers!
love, emily
