I'll spread my photos out over the next few days because there is a lot

Here we have photos of Cardiff Bay (or Bae Caerdydd as I learned in Welsh. Welsh is an ace language. I had Mum-Ra teachig me how to pronounce stuff all weekend) and some of the Torchwood locations



Me and The TARDIS outside the Doctor Who Exhibit


Me on the step that I think is the lift down to the Torchwood base


Me reflected in the water tower


The Millenium Center


And what holiday is complete without a ship?


No, sir, we fight with canon!
But I thought we were fighting with swords!
Swords? What do you think this is, the middle ages? Only girls fight with swords these days


I believe this is where Owen tried to drown himself in Season 2


Roald Dahl was baptised here. I think


Tosh and Tommy had a scene here. It's a memorial to Captain Scott


Torchwood display in the Tourist Information


A lightship. I just thought it was cool


The St David Hotel. Captain Jack has posed on the roof of this building. Weirdly I nearly ended up staying there for a James Marsters concert last year. I had no idea it was the same place at the time. John Barrowman got married here too.

I think your pictures are wonderful, even though I still haven't found the time to watch Torchwood yet. I need to bookmark this and come back again after I have. And I love your shirt, of course! :)

I've never seen a lightship before. It's a lighthouse! No, it's a ship! It's both! I think it's cool, too.

Hee! Yeah, watch Torchwood, it's awesome!

I've never seen a lightship either. Glad I'm not the only one who thought it was cool. LOL!

Thats your icon isn't it? It's going to be my default for the week I believe.

Hee! Yes, I made it, but you're using it so it's your icon

You aren't the first person to suggest that. I just might. And there's more to the Sheep Girl story! I still need to post about that.

No no - you're on the wrong step. It's one to your right (if you're looking at the picture). The one that doesn't have any of the cement missing out of it - I mean really, can you imagine being lowered into Torchwood HQ and having the step falling apart underneath you everytime you used that entrance?

I believe St. David's was also used as Owen's apartment in an episode or two.

Great pics! *smile*

Oh noes! Wrong step! LOL!

I was really surprised that there was no organised tour or anything that went around all the locations

And I really want to change the text on that icon I made for you. LOL! The 'er' of 'dinner' blends in to Jack's undershirt

*is anal and a perfectionist*

LOL!
