Today is St. David’s Day (Dydd Dewi Sant) in Wales. As you may know, St. David is the patron saint of Wales. Many Welsh people wear a leek on St. David’s day in his honour, although I never managed to do this.
In honour of this, I thought I’d share some of my favourite pictures of Wales from my trip there this time last year.
Caerphilly Castle, the second largest castle in the UK. ![]()

Happy St. David’s Day!


Honestly! should not a pizza emporium provide plates, nappies and utensils? and wine, is this not a beverage of choice?
ReplyDeleteyou might know that nappies are diapers, so of course, the pizza place didn't provide them.
DeleteThat Cardiff ad really made me laugh--we can only imagine that his wife got run over by a bus.
ReplyDeleteThe rest of the post shows magnificent pictures that seriously make me want to go to Wales and explore.

Terrific photos and I look forward to the day we can finally visit Wales. I love your old school, what history! Next year I'll remember to wear a leak around my neck in your honor!
ReplyDeleteHow does one wear a leek around one's neck. Also, where does one take a leak in Paris?
ReplyDeleteGAH. Gorgeous!
