The Bay

	The Norwegian church, once used by sailors from that country who often visited Cardiff Docks (with wooden pit props for the coal mines)
Some nice floating 'pads'			A lightship, which is, I believe, open to the public.
This amusing creation sits atop one of the buildings by the waterfront and acts as a weathervane, I believe.		There are also some interesting pieces of work at ground level.
The first object, ladies and gentlemen is a Pink Hut; A Pink Hut.			Big sails, but it ain't going nowhere.
	This one is on its way out to sea.
A water Bus linking Cardiff with Penarth			Harbour Patrol
	A touch of ancient and modern. The dragon is the modern (yet ancient) mascot of Wales in front of this newly renovated waterfront building.	It is now a bar and a trendy restaurant. Drinks on the balcony
and the drinkers have a view across the Marina towards Cardiff..			Just around the corner (a few K's) is the Genteel resort of Penarth, with its large elegant houses looking across the Severn estuary to Somerset.
The Captains of bygone ships built them and chose to live here away from the everyday bustle and grime of 19th century Cardiff. Today, it is a fashionable suburb of Cardiff, with good transport links to Cardiff and the Bay. There is now a regular water bus service between the two.
		Penarth has its own marina with plenty of up-market boats. A few years ago, a friend and colleague of mine, Geoff Titterton on his boat Eclipse, left for a round the world mission. He called in recently to see me, but his boat is now in Trinidad having successfully crossed the Atlantic in 22 days. He rejoins his boat in early 2004.
