Cardiff is the largest city in Wales and was made its capital in 1955. It sits on three rivers - the Taff, the Ely, and the Rhymney - all of which flow into the Bristol Channel. It rose to be the economic centre of Wales as a result of its docks shipping the coal and steel of the south Wales valleys around the world in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
'Modern' Cardiff is a vibrant and young capital city that offers something suitable for everybody's tastes. From recognised high-street shopping brands to its many smaller boutiques throughout the city centre arcades, restaurants of all the worlds cuisine's, cinema's and theatres, bars and nightclubs, the re-developed Dock area, two universities, and of course, sport. Cardiff's Millennium Stadium is the home of Wales' international football and rugby teams - as well as a regular stop for touring bands. There is also the Cardiff Blues rugby team, Cardiff City Football Club, Glamorgan County Cricket Club and the Cardiff Devil's Ice Hockey team. And that's without mentioning the two thousand year-old Roman castle that dominates the centre of the city! An amazing feature of Cardiff is its wonderful nightlife at weekends. The main St. Mary's Street is just walking road for people to enjoy bars and discos on both sides of the street.

Ruby was up even later then I was so I let her sleep in and being the nice friend that I am I snuck some toast up to the room for her for breakfast. After we got up and got our stuff together an...

Man, I was tired. Family crises - tiring. Family crises, 150 miles away, in an area you should be an expert in, with added emotional stuff-and-things - well, if this is adulthood, someone can take it and shove it up there left nostril. Sideways. I needed a weekend!
Ruby and Lori, two of the loveliest people on travbuddy, were spending the weekend in Cardiff, and I decided that I would go through and see them. Of course, I've only been to Cardiff once before, and I got a tad...

november 2006, traveled to the uk on a whimsical invitation by a kiwi friend of mine to see the game we both love the most. met up in london where he was living, then drove to cardiff for the weekend to see the rugby game, wales vs. new zealand. didn't get to see the haka, but nz won, plus i met the welsh team and drank an obscene amount, though not compared to my kiwi friends - they are still champs when it comes to that! :-)
