It is a beautiful, sunny day here in St Davids and I have discovered a cafe with internet access and the world's best icecream - what more could I ask?
It has been very windy, so much so that the boats to Skomer Island have been cancelled for the last two days so we haven't seen the puffins yet. Our tent stood up to the wind though, which is a great relief.
We have come into St Davids today to go to Choral Mattins at the cathedral. It's not our usual style of worship but I think it will be something special to experience. Yesterday, we visited Pembroke Castle, the birthplace of the Tudor Dynasty. Henry VII's uncle is the namesake of my middle son so he felt a particular connection.
We have drunk a lot of hot chocolate, read a few chapters of Harry Potter, the children have ridden around on their bikes and the adults have eaten hummus and Doritios. We've found time to ponder some of life's deeper questions too, revealing some of what's truly important to the younger members of our family:
If you were a hermaphrodite, what kind of bike would you have?
Which would kill you most, and iceberg or a shark?
