S1 E14 - Pembrokeshire Coast Path, butterflies and seals

Today's episode was recorded *on the August bank holiday* - the last one of the year, during a walk along the Pembrokeshire coast path from Strumble head to Goodwick.

We took in Pen Anglas, Carreg Wastad, and a bay of which I don't know the name, but where we sat and stared at a few grey seals while they looked back.

The glorious sunshine was a real surprise on the one day of the whole weekend which remained dry until early evening, but the rough seas were a reminder of the storms that had been around for some time. We had the path largely to ourselves, and marvelled at the butterflies, chubby seals hauled out on various rocks, and at just how beautiful this place is. A whole day of nature connection that was so good for the soul!

*what a pickle - no it wasn't - it was recorded on the Saturday before the bank holiday! - I always come here for the August bank holiday and this was the first year in about 20 that I didn't - hence the confusion - apologies ;-) - As those of you that follow me on Instagram will know - I was cycling in the Cotswolds on the bank holiday!
