A wet day at Laugharne castle. Splashed through the puddles and rain pouring down. Rewarded with a Welsh cake & coffee.

Pentre Ifan Dolmen, Pembrokeshire is a collection of seven stones. The largest is the huge capstone, estimated to weigh 16 tonnes which rests on the tips of three other stones, some 2.5 m off the ground.

Caerleon amphitheatre. Built in AD90, it held up to 6000 spectators. It's an amazing feeling walking down the ancient steps. The third photo shows an alter, where a small statue of a god or goddess was placed, so the gladiators could worship before a fight! 🏟️

I always love visiting Little Haven nature reserve, something special about it and the way the trees frame the path 🙂

Remembering the Welsh Poet Dylan Thomas ..born this day on 1914 , this is Laugharne Castle , not far from me , where he wrote a lot of his work , it belonged to a friend who let him use a room in the castle wall over looking the Taf Estuary to write in when there was too much chaos at home
