Friday - May 1st 2015
Claudia and I are big fans of the United Kingdom. Until now we have been to
London
and
Scotland
and this years we wanted return to London. We are also big Doctor Who fans and
since Cardiff is home to the Doctor Who Experience, we decided to combine a
trip to London with a visit to Wales' capital city. Our
easyjet flight departed from
Munich in the morning and so we had to get up early. After we checked in at
the airport, we had a cup of coffee and soon it was time for boarding. Around
11:00am we arrived at London Gatwick airport and collected our belongings
before we headed to the
National Express
bus station. At first we wanted to rent a car, but renting is very expensive
in the UK compared to other countries and so we took the bus, which was a lot
cheaper and much more relaxing. In the late afternoon Claudia and I finally
arrived in Cardiff and walked straight to our hotel. We stayed at the
Lincoln House Hotel, which was located about 20 minutes by foot from the city center. The hotel
offered a full Welsh breakfast and the hotel staff even got vegan breakfast
sausages for us. Our room was very nice and equipped with a TV and a bathroom.

After we unpacked our stuff, we walked back into the city for an early dinner
at Wagamama. I had the fried rice and Claudia got the curry. Later we just strolled
around in Cardiff, got a coffee at Starbucks, and then we headed back to the
hotel, where we enjoyed a glass of beer at the hotel bar.
