Aberystwyth

Today's route was from Cardiff to Aberystwyth. The route took us through the centre of Cardiff, then north through Treorchy, Neath, and Llandovery. The weather was overcast all day, and slight rain fell most of the day.

There was a mix of roads, from A-roads to narrow one-lane winding roads. The road from Neath to Llandovery climbed into a foggy summit at Black Mountain. The views of the rolling hills were magnificent. The sheep roamed freely on the road, so you must be careful not to hit one.

From Llandovery, the narrow roads went up and down the valley hills. On some crests in the road, I couldn't see over the bonnet, so I was praying that another car wasn't coming over the crest from the other direction. Fortunately, I hit no cars on the crests, but there were a few occasions where I met other cars on blind corners, with a need to take evasive action. Nevertheless, today's roads were the best roadster roads to date.

We arrived early in Aberystwyth and went to have a look at the beach. No one was swimming, but the lone lifesaver was diligently on duty to ensure no one got into trouble. When we arrived at our accommodation, no one was there to check us in. We even called to no avail, so we found some other accommodation, which is much nicer than what we originally booked.Baca selengkapnya
