UK Return Part 4: Hay-on-Wye to Bath to Stonehenge

We left Hay-on-Wye with trepredation. To make it to Bath today we were going to need to understand the public transit systems and for it to to be reliable. Getting on the first bus to Brecon was pretty easy, but after 15 minutes of waiting for a transfer that was supposed to be 5 minutes, we started to get nervous. To make it worse, it was raining and they were doing construction and drilling into rock half a block away. It wasn’t a scenic place if we were going to be waiting here long, so we wandered up the road and found a nice little brewery to pile all our luggage in a corner and warm up at.

We thought we had the right time for the transfer, but when we got back to the bus stop there was still nothing happening there, and we succumbed to the idea that we might now live in Brecon, Wales (it wouldn’t have been a bad place to be stranded). Finally, a bus we needed came and we were off to Abergavenny through the Brecon Beacons national park and mountain range.
