The partially flooded seafront car park at 260 |
Swansea Council's car parking tariff is curious to say the least. Why on earth do they charge 50p for one hours stay but more than double that price for two hours stay?
Luckily, their bizarre (and rather unfair) second hour's car park charges didn't apply to me today as it had only just turned 6pm and it is free parking after 7.
Before going down onto the beach for my evening's walk, I popped into the 360 for a quick Latte and was impressed by the quick service there and also their fresh and rather jaunty decor.
Having lived in Swansea for most of my life, I remember Swansea Bay during it infamous years, when it was regarded as little more than an open sewer by much of the city residents. Thankfully, those dark days are slipping from memory and today the beach is both clean and popular. It really is a great seeing the sands here enjoyed by so many people and I, too, as can be clearly seen by anyone flicking through the pages of my Swansea blog, am finding myself drawn here more and more regularly.
This evening, especially, Swansea Bay seemed to be celebrating the sunshine with a particularly sporting theme:
An evening's game of Volleyball |
A run along Swansea Bay |
I can see myself spending quite a lot of time down Swansea Bay this year.
