Caldey Island

This week, the little one and I took a trip out to Caldey Island, off the coast of Pembrokeshire. I only intended to go to Tenby for the day, but when I reached there, the pull from the island was pretty big. It's a wonderful place. If you've never been, do try to because if it's tranquility you're after, you surely won't be disappointed. I'm sure that the peace passed down from centuries of worship and practice here has permeated the very bedrock.

Here are some pictures from our day.


 Boat = One very happy babe


 There's always time for baboo

 An old mill, with millstones still inside




 Sampling the Caldey fudge (chocolate caramel)

 Hmmm...


 So many lichen and stonecrop covered dry stone walls...

 ...and heart's tongue fern verges...

The Abbey

Back in Tenby harbour. Time for a dig and a paddle before home. Brrr!
