Flip-flops to booties – it really hurts!

It’s not an easy transition and everything about it feels alien, which is silly because I’ve been walking in my boots for months, some of them years.

For some reason, when returning home my feet literally repelled my closed toe shoes  by swelling. I thought feet only did this in heat, it was raining and I was in Wales, by all accounts it makes no sense.

Apparently my feet have acclimatised to beautiful, open toe flip-flops, breathing in the sunny air. So be it, if only I could find an elegant shoe like this to wear to work…something to research! Any advice welcome,

A visit to the Welsh – Cardiff City

It turns out the main thing to do here (as with most cities) is bar hop and consume food; which goes down quiet well in my books. There is, however, plenty to see in this historical city that intertwines the old and new beautifully.

In my dear opinion it’s just another city, but worth a day trip all the same. Here are a few sights to visit if you stumble across the Welsh side and enter the Capital:

Cardiff Castle, £10 entry

Bute Park

National Museum, FREE ENTRY

Enjoy!
