Wales


The little known part of the United Kingdom has the world’s longest city name…

When you think of the United Kingdom, the first place that comes to mind is probably England, then Scotland, then Northern Ireland.

Wales obviously is also in the United Kingdom, and in my opinion is my favorite country in the kingdom. We got off a ferry that was headed from Ireland to Wales. We stopped at the longest city name in the world- Llanfair­pwllgwyngyll­gogery­chwyrn­drobwll­llan­tysilio­gogo­goch . The countryside is beautiful with more farm animals than you can count. We stayed for one night in Llangollen, which is a small town up in the countryside of no more than 4000 people. What it does not have in people, it makes up for in scenery and tranquility. There is no major clubs or bars, just small places to hang out and one hell of a cool little train……

We then made our way to the capital of Cardiff. This was a very interesting city as we stayed very close to the city center. We were actually right next to the Millennium Stadium and went on a tour inside which is a massive beautiful place. We then took a jaunt around the water front to all of the different sites there. I made it as far as the Dr. Who Museum when I figured out that I needed to get back to start the night with my friends…….
