Wales abounds in Roman / Norman / Anglo castles, each with its own fascinating history.
We stumbled across this one in the little village of Kidwelly, Where we had stopped for a cup of coffee.

Surf's up at Freshwater East, a beautiful spot where the rolling green hills come down to meet the ocean. Thousands of people flock there during the English summer (which doesn't appear to have started yet)

 Another day, another castle. This one is Pembroke Castle at Pembroke. Henry VII was born here and was the first king in the Tudor dynasty.

 Pembroke Castle was built over the top of an ancient underground cavern once inhabited by cave dwellers during the Middle Ages.

 We visited a quaint little fishing village called Fishgard on the West Coast before heading back East.
