A Weekend in Wales

The humans and I took a long weekend trip to Wales recently, as suggested by one of their friends. We started our trip in Tenby, which had a nice station:

It also had tons of lovely flowers around the walls:

And a great view from the top of the cliffs:

More than one, in fact:

4 Island

Our Airbnb was called The Hoot – I wonder why…?

5 The Hoot

Our second day trip was to Pembroke, which had an impressive castle:

First, though, we stopped off for lunch – I think ‘black pudding’ and ‘salad’ ought to be mutually exclusive…

7 Black Pudding Salad

Inside the castle was just as impressive as outside:

On our last day, we went to Caerphilly, which had a festival with jousting (though not as much cheese as we’d anticipated):

And also a statue of Tommy Cooper…

All in all, it was an excellent trip – thanks for organising it, Derek!
