Travel Focus: Cardiff
One of the most vibrant and attractive cities in the UK is the Welsh capital Cardiff. It is also a relatively young city, not achieving the status until 1905, and not being proclaimed the capital city until 1955.

Try A Different Kind Of Cruise This Summer
I have already shared my love of cruising holidays in many posts on this blog. For me, the luxury of the setting, combined with the excellent food and entertainment options is a great selling point. Add in the beauty of waking up in a different port of call every day. allowing you to experience a new city, culture and atmosphere, and I think you have the makings of the perfect holiday for all the family.
