Day 35 - NEWPORT, ST. DAVIDS, TO CARDIFF

Awoke to beautiful day this morning. Had a light breakfast at the B & B and left on the last leg on our UK car journey.
Drove from Newport on the coast through fishguard and on to St. David's. Visited the cathedral which was originally set up there in the 6th century and fully built in the 12th century. So old - makes you realise how young a country NZ is.


Walked to St. Non's Chapel on the coast where Sharon actually did go down the track to see the ruins (there was some talk of the 'rubble hill') and Kim stayed up the hill to take the photo. She reckons she's got the luck now cos she touched the healing water.

Continued on our way to Cardiff and dropped off the car. Cath picked us up at the rental car place - took us a whole hour to find the place! - and arrived at her house by 4.30pm. Here's Luke with his black eye - this one's for you, Emma. had a lovely dinner with Cath and caught up with all the family life. Jo went off to the pub with his mates to see them after the 9 months he was in NZ and Aussie.



Lovely to see the family again and to see Jo back home safe and sound.
