Another amazing weekend

So, last Saturday I took a 2 hour train ride down to Cardiff. It was super cool! First, I went to Cardiff Castle, the one must-see attraction in Cardiff. Then, I took advantage of the beautiful Spring weather and walked around a pretty park near the castle. Afterwards, I spent my day walking around Cardiff and exploring the bustling shopping scene. They have my two new favorite stores- Top Shop and H&M. So of course, I spent probably too much money shopping. I also went on an unusually crazy day since there was a big Rugby game at Millennium Stadium in Cardiff. Specifically, it was the Six Nations Championship game and Wales played Ireland. I actually saw the Ireland rugby team get off the bus at the stadium- which was amazing.

After my eventful day in Cardiff, I spent my Sunday exploring Regent Park. Regent Park was really pretty and spacious. It had all these quaint little cafes, pretty gardens, small rock waterfalls, duck ponds, football fields (a.k.a soccer fields) etc. Sunday was also Mother's day in the U.K, ironically enough. After Regent Park, I FINALLY went and saw Confessions of a Shopalcholic. It was amazing. More to come later. Cheers.
