A Day Trip to Chepstow/Cas-gwent

Yesterday I went to Chepstow (or Cas-gwent as it's called in Welsh) with my parents, where we met up with my godfather. It was the first time I'd been to Wales since we went to watch the football at the Olympics in 2012!

We had lunch at a pub next to the River Wye. It's quite picturesque, even though the water is a bit dirty!

Afterwards, we went to the main attraction - the castle, which first started being built in 1067. It is really impressive for a building that old.

I really liked this row of colourful houses next to the castle.

Then we had a bit of a look around the town and went to the town museum, which is free to enter.

Chepstow was a nice place to visit, and as someone who loves languages, it was fun to see all the bilingual signs.

The next place I'll be writing about will probably be Bournemouth, where we'll be going in July. It'll be nice to go to the beach, even if it's cold!
