Schooltripper's Return

WonderCulture Schooltrip Task Tags and badges

Just love this large impressive timepiece by H Samuel under their brand name Everite. It's above the arched entrance to Cardiff Central Market which opened on the 8th May 1891 by the Marchioness of Bute.

Discovered a disco in Crockherbtown Lane (which I also dicovered!). Disco lights flashing at 4pm? I was intrigued but didn't go in. Leaves me wondering - Was anyone really on the dancefloor?

10Feet Tall..... just another favourite 'nest'!

We've been busy busy but not too busy to upload our photos from last Thursday's WonderCulture Schooltrip on Flickr. It was a terrific creative activity - pure free-flow, individually inventive and great to meet new people presenting different perspectives of the city centre. Everyone established their own documentary approach from the off. Lynsey went all random on us walking in the opposite direction to where she would normally go and opposite to the rest of us when she spotted us! My approach was way more controlled - walking a familiar route, identifying a street name, looking up, setting an horizon and capturing the architecture ignored just below the sky horizon - and I got that blue sky I love too! We proudly presented our souvenirs at the end - Lynsey did 'old' - a bag of good old fashioned chocolate limes bought from a sweet shop established a 114 years ago that none of us even knew existed. I did 'new' - I joined the new Cardiff Central Library and got my library card, a first in over 15 years ..... better late than never!
