This is Sydney, so named because my Mum gave him to me to take to Australia with me. Ever since, he has gone to different places with me, on our day trips out.

There's Rob in the chapel. The chapel is actually built into the rock, so you have to go down the steps, through the door and out the other door, (Rob is stood near the other door), to reach the sea.

A picture taken through the window, overlooking the rocks and the sea. About ten yards away.

Two crosses placed on the alter, it somehow restored my faith in human nature, to see that they weren't disturbed, and such a privilege to see too, it felt quite a religious experience.

Couple of days in Tenby, Wales.

Just come back from Wales on Thursday, we had a lovely couple of days, and stayed in an hotel in Tenby. It took us about 4 hours to drive there, including a stop for a hot drink, and of course what goes in has to come out. It was fairly cold, which meant that the tourist hotspots were quiet. Great. We booked into the hotel at around 1.30pm, and then looked round the local shops. Then walked round Tenby at the touristy bits. Went driving on the Wednesday, had a great day, went to St Davids and St Govans Chapel, (which was lovely). On the Thursday went home, going to Cardiff on the way. Stayed in Cardiff for a couple of hours.

Tenby

Sandy beaches too.


St Davids


St Govan's Chapel

All them steps, apparently you never count the same amount of steps coming up as you do going down them. I didn't bother, I was concentrating on not slipping.




Below is the Chapel. It's only tiny. That's me taking a picture of my bear who goes with me, when we go to different places, so he can have his picture taken; sorry, that's just the way I am.


I love hearing the sound of the waves breaking on the rocks.


It's such a soothing sound.
