Looking ahead

[fbhjr]

My wife and I have committed to going to Wales in a couple of months and have bought our tickets.

Now, it is a question of planning out what we’re going to see.

We are going to have 4 1/2 days and there are 5 days worth of things we’d like to do.
There is a bunch of stuff near Cardiff that we are going to see. Not an option.
(The green area on the map.) Sadly, 1/2 day is not enough for it, so we’re going to spend 1 1/2 days there.
That leaves 3 days and 4 more areas.
(Keep in mind we drive three hours each way as a day trip to go to museums fairly often. So, if you say "those things are a long ways apart", yeah some are.)
We’ve already cut out some things from the first pass. (We already saw the horde… http://fbhjr.livejournal.com/521587.html )

My wife and I were discussing it and she said "we know people who have been there. You should ask them."
So, a survey. Even if you haven’t been there, feel free to vote. I make no promises whatsoever that we will abide by the results.

The choices are:
South West Wales (Yellow): Lots of Castles. Neither of us has been there. Some pond where legend has it a watery tart lobbing scimitars might live.

North Wales (Orange): Lots of Castles. Neither of us has been there. Some pond that might be where Excaliber was chucked. (Yeah, there is an Arthurian theme here. We’re sword fighters. Get over it.)

The Royal Armory in Leeds (Blue): Neither of us have been there. My wife and I used to volunteer and do sword shows at an Armory Museum here in the states. We met and took classes from folks from the Leeds place. We’ve wanted to see that museum for all of this millennium.

Southern England (Purple): I have been there, but my wife has not. (http://fbhjr.livejournal.com/877443.html ) Collections of rocks in circles. Nice stained glass. Graffiti on the hills.



So, pick 3 of the 4.
We’ll ignore the results. But, if you’ve been to any, heard about any, or just really like any, go ahead and say in comments. We’ll pay more attention to that.

I've never been there so I think whatever you get to see will be amazing!
