Monday morning we drove a little further and ended up in the beautiful town of Tenby, South Wales. This was such a cool place. The old city wall was still very much a part of the town and it overlooked the water. Also, when the tide was out, you could get to what we thought were islands. Amazing.
Tenby is a delightful little harbour town and seaside resort, and it would be difficult to find a setting more picturesque...Tenby's hilltop position led to its early settlement as a Welsh stronghold, which was replaced in medieval times by a Norman Castle and walled town. Part of the town walls survive to this day and are an attractive feature at the entrance to the old town.
Until quite recently Tenby was known as "Little England beyond Wales" and the town remains a rather anglicised part of Wales. From the early 19th century, Tenby became a fashionable holiday destination for both the Welsh and the English, and its attractions to the holidaymaker are just as obvious today, with the fantastic beaches stretching to the north, the west, and the south of the town.
Walk along Tenby’s South Beach toward Giltar Point and the start of the Pembrokeshire Coastal Path for fantastic views of Caldey Island. http://www.tenbyvisitorguide.co.uk

| When the tide is high, there is only about 2 feet of this tunnel showing. |

| On the lookout for invaders. |

| Tanner is an amazing brother. Arik's joints were hurting a bit so Tanner carried him all the way up the stairs - every single one, and it was a long way! |
