Cardiff – Day 2 continued

In the Castle Arcade we quickly found what we were looking for: Madame Fromage, for a Welsh rarebit and some cheese soup.
After lunch we visited the best known landmark of the city, often used as a filming location: Cardiff Castle.
To conclude the afternoon, we went to BrewDog Cardiff again.

Our last day in London, our last day of visits to museums, bars and breweries.
We started our day checking out the Old Spitalfields Market, having a pulled pork bagel for breakfast, followed by a last coffee at Nude Espresso.
After the lines at Dennis Severs’ House turned out to be a little too long, we went to the Guildhall Art Gallery, mostly to check out the remains of the Roman amphitheater, underneath the current building.
In the afternoon we visited one last brewery — Anspach & Hobday — and the last BrewDog bar of our trip — BrewDog Soho.
The last underground voyage took a bit longer than foreseen, when there were some problems on the direct line to St Pancras. We made it to our Eurostar well in time in the end, thus concluding this beer-filled London trip.

London – Day 2

After a chilly breakfast at Cafe 1001, and a hot macchiato at Exmouth Coffee, we headed to the Tower of London. The first time we visited London, we were just too late to get access to the Tower, so we were looking forward to be ably to actually visit it this time.
Apparently a cold day in February is an excellent day to avoid queues: there weren’t any!

London- (Full) Day 1

Our first complete day started well with coffee and breakfast at Nude Espresso.
When you’re in Spitalfields, you have to visit the (ho)spital museum, so we did.
Afterward we went to Sutton House, to discover its history.

Dolhuys

A visit to the Dolhuys, a former mental asylum, with an exhibit about the history and present of mental health care.
