Welsh Withdrawals

Today marks the first day of the Shu Wen study regime and it's been all right so far- but the sun is out, it looks like a lovely day and I've been in the whole day so far reading about the phenomenon of white migration within and beyond the British Empire in the 19th Century (oh history is such a joy! And I don't mean it in a sacarstic way). However, I am having Welsh withdrawals. Our Wales adventure last week was wonderful- Wales is such a beautiful part of the UK and it's so unbelievably serene and peaceful. We were in Cardiff for two nights (unfortunately we didn't visit or see Mr. Harris- he didn't respond to our snail mail), Swansea and the Gower Peninsula for two nights and the quaint coastal town of Tenby for the last two nights. We definitely got a taste of living by the countryside and most of the time, there weren't people for miles and miles. Here are some snippets of the coastal walks/hikes/treks that Hui Min, Mei Ching, Nicholas and I embarked on last Wednesday and Friday.

Summer is only a couple of months away I can't, can't wait for it to come- more travelling awaits! For now, I shall read about the rise of Japan in the early 20th Century. Hmm Japan- I want to go to Japan one day.
