This will be a short one. Promise. I just had to tell everyone about how I felt like I had a very "local Swansea" day yesterday. Claire and I decided to head to Mumbles, ate fish and chips at Yallops sitting on a bench by the pier looking at the bay, had Joe's ice cream for dessert, and then ate a Cadbury chocolate on the bus home.
I love Mumbles. Its one of the villages on the SW part of the bay and has a quaint, lovable feel to it. Lots of boutiques and bed and breakfasts. Yallops is supposed to be the best fish and chips in Swansea. Mmmm fresh cod! Joe's ice cream is also a local treasure-- and its awesome. Lastly, I had to put a little plug in for the Cadbury chocolate. Although we can get Cadbury chocolate in the States, it did begin in Birmingham, England so I feel like I may be having it in its most natural form here. All the more reason to eat more of it, right?
Of course I forgot my camera on this impromtu adventure, but I will try to steal a picture or two from Claire and post them when I can!

Laura, talked with Maggie yesterday and she said you two are trying to hook up. I suggested Dublin or London. Hopefully it will work out. We are going to have dinner with your folks tonight at Rudy's. Love your blog and hearing all about your time in Wales. Tim Luce
