Tenby reminded me a lot of White Rock, except there was no white rock and there was more then just the one beach. Tenby is a medieval city and has its city centre surrounded by a stone wall and the four different beaches encircle the town. There is Harbour Beach, North Beach, Castle Beach and South Beach, and I spent most of my day at Castle Beach.
We arrived at about 10:30 am and a large group of us just went straight to the very large area of sand that is Castle Beach. It felt kind of like home again, to be at the beach and near the water seeing as were a group of students from the west coast. The tide was out so the beach area was huge and it was so early in the morning there was hardly anyone else there but us. As soon as I got to the sand I took my shoes and walked along the beach. I went all the way out to the water and spent a good deal of time with my legs in the water, taking pictures. Just walking down the beach in my bare feet was a very nice and relaxing start to the day.
After the beach I went into the town and just walked around, it has a small, compact feeling to it and everywhere I turn I would see either a candy shop and or an ice cream shop. Some people definitely took advantage of the sweets.
At one point a few of us needed to go to the washroom and in trying to find one we ended up walking in a big circle around the town all the way back to the public washrooms at the same beach where we started our day. And then a few of us just went back to the beach, which had increased in the number of people and the sun was beaming. We sat out in the sun and it felt really nice not worry about getting to the next thing so quickly and to be constantly moving, it felt good to be still, on the beach, in the sun.
Days until London weekend: 8
