Blogs from Gower Peninsula, Swansea, Wales, United Kingdom, Europe - page 2

Hello loves! Greetings from Swansea Wales where the sun has been shining for 3 days in a row (there may have been some cloud cover but not to much). Today our group split up ( :( ) to meet with and start filming our clients. The Discovery group left shortly after breakfast but our group didn't have anything planned until 3. So we made great use of our time and headed farther into Mumbles to exchange some currency and do some shopping. (we are actually not staying in Swansea we are staying in Mumbles which is essentially like a district of Swansea). Me, Megan, Nicole and our fearless leader Mark Scott walked around, looking through stores and such while the guys in our group went to Joe's and bought the last of the "good" premade sandwiches. ... read more

Well, fortunately, the weather gods continue to smile upon us and today was another great Welsh day with the sun shining and not much wind around. Breakfast was early once again - 8 o’clock to fit everything we had to do today. Again, the sick count is starting to climb - having the boys in such close confines is spreading the bugs pretty quickly -and we had a few more looking down this morning. It wasn’t until later in the day that we realised just how bad it is getting - more on that later. We left the hotel at 9 for the inaugural under 15s paintball challenge - this was really what the tour was about - Dads V boys in the real version of Call of Duty! It was half way back to ... read more

After a few months of working we decided that it was time to get out and about so Triona and I along with some of our workmates headed down to the Gower Peninsula a national park area about an hours drive from Cardiff. We spent the day here and it was really nice although I think in Australia we are spoilt for beaches. ... read more
