A visit to Wales : Cardiff-1 : Cardiff Road, Omani Day

 
We decided to visit Cardiff this weekend, and to meet our colleagues from Oman
 
............
 
After a long discussion, we decided to hire a car to drive till Cardiff
 
............
 
Ford Rental 
 
 
They had two cars on that day; Mondeo and KA
 
I have selected KA as it is small, and cheap
 
Here is the car
 
 
 
We parked the car, so that we leave in early morning
 
It was a very cold night
...................
 
Once waking up in the morning, I saw something on the mirrors of the car
 
What is that??
 
 
It was 'ice' because of 0 temperature !!
 
I have started cleaning the mirror with a warm towel
 


 
My hand was freezing !!

 
Kids were ready for the trip

Na'il

 
The area behind was enough for Na'il, Sanaya, and their mother

 
We moved at 0830
