Oh after the castle, I walked along a river in Bute Park to visit their museum.
Then, went to the bay area later the day.
We ran out of time on our trip and didn’t visit the museum or several other places that were on our ‘To Visit’ list.
Clock tower is so beautiful Cherie ????
Health,peace and happiness to you both my♥️????
I would love to see it close up and examine the finer details.
Health, peace and happiness to you and your family too xx
