Countryside at the Outskirt of Cardiff, Wales - Wild Fig

Instead of going for a strawberries picking date, we ended up strolling around the countryside in Wales. Well, Cardiff. Outskirts of Cardiff of course!

We were early for it this year. It turns out, the strawberries picking only starts the next day. Oh well, we didn't lose out too much. We enjoyed the view so much.

Love the farm. Love the peace.


I was trying to take the picture of that house by the mountain but didn't realise that the horses were in the picture as well! Heee!


Actually, it may very well be ponies but they were so cute. One of it was trying to flip its hair off its face :) And how adorable IS that?!



Hello!


Oh yes, finally just the house. I wanna live in one of these!


Organic homemade jams, sauces and crackers!


Nice cafe in the middle of the valleys. Wild Fig.


Dramatic picture of flowers. I'm getting better.


You didn't think I wouldn't snap a picture of the chicken barn with heart shaped windows would you?? LOL




Mimi Pie.


Freshly made chocolate ice cream!


Wild Fig. Don't know how we found it but we did! In the middle of the farm roads and countryside. Everything is great that day!



I guess it's not always about city breaks and shopping.

Bath other than the Roman Bath Spa - Mulberry Factory Store

So what else is there in Bath other than the famous Roman Bath Spa? Don't get me wrong, I only found that the Roman Bath Spa is no longer interesting because I've been inside for 3 times.

Outfit of the day.

Don't be fooled by the weather forecast and the fact that it's Summer. Good old cardi and tights is still very much the essentials.

For breakfast, we had McD's hot cakes. Why is it special?

It's special because I barely would made it for breakfast. Always supper. Never Breakfast.



And Bath is so clean, you can even take a bath in their fountains.


Check out Roman architecture. Beautiful.


We arrived at 9 am in Bath, obviously shops aren't opened yet. So we head to the outskirts of Bath to do some shopping.

Damn shiok right. Same stuff for so much cheaper. We are damn smart, you're damn stupid.


Two bags and one t-shirt for me and two HUGE bags for Polimon. She told me the reason Mulberry's factory shop is in Bath is because Mulberry originated in Somerset.

Wow, don't we learn something new everyday?

Ok, now go Google your way there.

Back to Bath City Center.
By now, you should know Sushi is one of my main diet. I think the place is called i-yen. Or yen. Something like that.

The food is okay only, really unlike how some of my "friends" have raved about it.

One plus point though, it that the service is great and ingredients used are really fresh. So I guess anything made freshly is always good.
 
Nyam nyam!

As to why, I can't remember the name of the restaurant is......

Jeremy Ho. As soon as we met up, we didn't stop chatting.

He's the male dramatic version of me. Only worst.


Drama King vs. Drama Queen. Ok, I surrender.

This is one good sheeeet.

Salmon's Fin soup. Damn cheapskate this restaurant, use Asda Value tissues but charge so much!

Makan makan!

Heeeeee! :D

Walk-See-Walk-See after eating.


Long lost friends. And I can see my eyebags in this picture.

And...

Last picture to sum up a great day out! xxx
