The Cathedral Around the Corner


Saturday February 19th, 2011 marked a momentous occasion in my journey abroad...it was my first solo foray out into the wild and wonderful world of Wales...and it was absolutely lovely.

Admittedly I o
nly went a few kilometres away from my dorm, but it was still nice to get out and see an new place and some incredible Welsh architecture. The place that I journeyed was a town called Llandaff (pronounced with the hissed double ll sound) which is within the Cardiff city limits, but houses the most amazing cathedral and a series of quintessentially British pubs and tea shops. My favourite of which is now Jasper's Tea Rooms, it was incredibly quaint and had delicious tomato soup. yum...


I spent the gorgeous and fortunately sunny day walking along the River Taff which runs through Bute park (the large green area in the picture) and wandered into Llandaff where I saw the Cathedral, Cathedral close, and in honor of Meg Peavey, the graveyard. Here they are:
