I had never heard of Mumbles before Hannah invited us to go and stay. My geography is pretty terrible anyway and my guess of it being 45 minutes away was a little inaccurate (more like a 3hour drive) but oh my goodness was it worth it! It's absolutely stunning! We managed to time the drive pretty well as Bobs and I instructed at Buggyfit on the Friday 10-11am and then drove straight from there which meant that Bobs had a nap from about 11-1230pm. Then we stopped for lunch at Starbucks which he absolutely loved...and then just another 90 minute drive to arrive at our destination.
Will and Hannah's house was lovely with such incredible views. We were so well looked after and made to feel so welcome and Bobs enjoyed exploring somewhere new! The Friday we just went for a little walk to get our bearings but this somehow ended up with Bobs crawling across the sand and beach into the distance making a right mess! He was absolutely loving it! When we got back we'd brought half the beach with us! It was no wonder Bobs slept well that night (he's not the best of sleepers in his travel cot). Then we were up early doors on the Saturday for the Swansea Bay Park Run. Unfortunately on this occasion Bobs couldn't join in as it was no buggies allowed so thankfully Will took on
childcare duty whilst Hannah and I ran as fast as we could to burn off last night's fajitas and wine! I was really chuffed with how I ran clocking 21:34.
After the run we had the chance to go for a little walk round Mumbles town itself which was beautiful. There are so many nice cafes and little shops. We also had an explore round the castle which was fun but a little tricky with the buggy! The Saturday night it was nice to chill after our days adventures and then with the big drive ahead on the Sunday we decided to just leave for home in the morning so we could get back to see Daddy.
It's safe to say the seaside....and in particular Mumbles....was a huge hit with Bobs. We can't wait to go again.
