Today i said goodbye to the hustle and bustle of London in favor of much quieter areas of England. The Paddington train station was crazy busy with people rushing to and from trains so i was excited to have a change of pace. Once i found out which platform my train was leaving from i had to go very quickly because they only gave us like 5 minutes to get on the train before it left the station. I bought first class tickets so i could be on the quiet car and have more room during my train rides and I am very glad that I spent the extra 30 pounds because i ended up being 1 of 3 people on the whole first class car during the trip. Because of this i was able to change seats and move around as much as I wanted to get different views of the countryside and not have to worry about bothering other people.

I had to change trains in Swansea which took longer than expected because of a train delay but wasn't too bad. Once I got to Haverfordwest I had to find a laundromat to clean my clothes since i could only bring a few outfits in my small backpack. My hotel room also didn't have a fan in it because there isn't any air conditioning in most places in England, so i had to go find a shop to buy a small fan. Exploring around helped me get my bearings in the town a bit as well. My online friends in the UK recommended that I go to a Wetherspoons restaurant that they found in the town i am staying in so i ate some fried chicken breast pieces with chips (french fries of course) and it was really good.

Tomorrow will be a day of hiking and sightseeing in the Pembrokeshire National Coastal Park and some exploring using the Welsh bus system.
