Rub a Dub Pub

(updated May 22nd, 2011)

I have a vision of taking pictures of the pubs I go to while I'm here and keeping them all on one blog post so I have a huge list by the end. I know I will miss a few but it'll be fun to see how many I can get. For example, two of these pics I had to lift from their websites (The Camden Head and The Sun in Splendor). I could go back and take my own and may do so since they are in common places but I'll use these for now. I will build a link into the address should you want to see it on a map and, where possible, a link to the pub's page built into the name.

Come What May

Somehow it has been a month again.  How does that happen?!  The last few weeks saw me finish up the term (with good grades even), read a few novels, meet some new friends, spend time with some old ones, and successfully navigate a whirlwind tour of southwest Britain.  The following is a brief overview of the latter.  I would think of this as a random sampling rather than a proper narrative.  In no particular order, let me present our British Road Trip!  (click photos for larger versions)

The old library in Cardiff hosts an exhibition with two parts: an historic overview of the city and a selection of contemporary art by locals.  This graphic summed up the city for me really well.  I didn't expect to like Cardiff as much as I did, but the people were so friendly and the atmosphere so lively that it really grew on me.  Definitely recommend a visit.
