I hope to blog a bit while we are on our trip and share some photos and video with you. I like trying to capture little moments which give you some feeling of what it is like to be wherever we are.

While we haven’t yet left, through the wonders of Google Street View, I can give you a little picture of where we will be staying in the 3 towns we are visiting.

First, Beaufort House in Cardiff, Wales, UK…

Beaufort House sits on a long street filled with similar buildings. I describe it as a Victorian version of an Irvine sub division. it sits to the northwest of the Cardiff city center.
