Road Trippin'

So anyway, last week Speed and I thought it was high time we took some time out. We hadn't had a proper break since our exams. So we broke in style! With a good ol' fashioned road trip! So sit tight, grab your favorite cushion, if you're using a laptop then sit next to the fireplace! I'm gunna take you on our road trip...

We didn't know exactly where we wanted to go apart from west Wales. We decided Friday to head to Saundersfoot. It's like two hours away. We hoped in the car Saturday morning and drove!


The general theme for the weekend was letting go of all worries and care. We stopped caring about coursework, health, money and all of the bad things that existed outside of our perfect Welsh bubble.

We first arrived at Saundersfoot and had a walk along the beach. The weather was brilliant for the whole weekend!

Then we headed down to Temby, about ten minutes away, so we could go to some sea-side shops! And, of course, some traditional fish & chips. They even had healthy option batter! But no, no - we weren't caring about health or money. Quite the contrary.


After shopping we decided to find a hotel / B&B to stay in. We must've checked 90% of the hotels in town. We were aiming for perfection. We did really well in the end, found a really nice place, cheapest we went to (not that we cared!) in Saundersfoot. The room was huge! (way too many photos here so have a slide show!)



It was a bit weird at the hotel though. It was like we were in someone's house. When we went to the living room there were loads of personal photos up and a dog skin on the sofa!

We went out for a meal, we were feeling a bit of Asian persuasion so decided to get an Indian. I'm so proud of myself for trying two new things! : Murgh Masala and Peshwari Nan. Both were really nice! I recommend!

Earlier in the day we saw posters for a night club! We thought it would be hillarious to go to a night club in this tiny little - seaside - old people village. We couldn't imagine what it would be like! Anyway, after the meal loads of kids were out all dappered up and it didn't look that fun. We walked around the village in the dark and it felt just like Before Sunrise! Really strange. Anyway, we got to the hotel, played some pool, watched some TV then went to bed.

The next day we had so many plans but they didn't really work. They were:

• Drive on the beach - the beach was closed
• Go to Oakwood theme park - closed
• Go shopping in Temby again - yeah we did that, it was fun and we ended up eating lunch at some weird 1950s cafe
• Go to some activity center place - it didn't look that fun actually so we skipped it

We drove around for a bit and eventually went to a vineyard! But we were the only people there and it was like someone's house so we left promptly. So pretty much we just had a walk on a beach then set off home, of course stopping for some unhealthy food on the way.


The weekend was really cool, I really enjoyed it! Total stress detox. Our throats were really crokey when we got home because we sang at full volume all the way home (and all the way there / everywhere we drove). It was totally fun and we're going to do it again and try to spend even more money and be even more unhealthy. I'd recommend it. Don't go for a long holiday because then you have to worry about grown-up things like money. Just two days, take out £100 and try to spend every penny. You'll love it.
