JoEnglish – Wales 2024

I thoroughly enjoyed myself spending a full day with 50 Italian visitors who came to Pembrokeshire with JoEnglish. All of the tourists are learning English with Joe and they spent a week in Wales, using their time here to hone their English language skills, and to learn a bit of Cymraeg too 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

The day started at Pembroke Castle, then we moved onto the Love Spoon Workshop at Cold Inn, before having an evening meal and quiz at The Jolly Sailor, Burton.

Lapland

A huge thank you to Mark and Anna at Ocky White Travel for a truly superb holiday to Lapland – a reindeer ride, skidoos, the Northern Lights and the real Father Christmas!

Camping At Dewslake

An awesome weekend’s camping at a superb campsite in Pembrokeshire – Dewslake Farm Camping & Glamping! It’s just outside the lovely village of Lamphey and only a few minutes drive away from some of the best beaches in Pembrokeshire – Tenby, Saundersfoot, Freshwater East and Manorbier.

The wares at the on-site cafe were tip-top 😋. It’s a vegetarian / vegan cafe and the breakfast rolls were unreal. But then again, halloumi is my fave cheese 😁

Are we going back? You bet we are!

Skomer Island 2021

I’m Pembrokeshire born and bred and it has taken me a very long time to get on to Skomer Island! I’ve been on to Ramsey & Caldey already, but finally those puffins have posed for me 😁📸

What an awesome experience and I highly recommended it to everyone!

An early start for this landscape on a family holiday in France. You’ll need an alarm clock, a tripod and nice weather to get shots like this ☀️☀️☀️

I strapped an ‘action cam’ to the back of my bike and fired away during this year’s Tour Of Pembrokeshire!  Here’s a few of the photographs!  It was very well organised (as usual!), but not a single drop of rain (VERY unusual!).  A slightly different cycle route, starting and finishing near St David’s at Crug Glas, and another huge success!

Thank you very much!

Just a few of the photos I took on our recent trip to New York, USA!  The hustle and bustle of Manhattan, Park Avenue, Madison Avenue and 5th Avenue contrasted with the serenity of Ground Zero and greenery of Central Park!  We stayed in the Waldorf Astoria on Park Avenue, just a stone’s throw away from Grand Central Station and had a trip around The Statue of Liberty and went up The Empire State Building – if ever you get the chance, I can highly recommend a trip to New York!
