Nadolig Llawen
That's Welsh for Merry Christmas. I decided to help out my friend Father Christmas this year. We have quite a few things in common :- red, jolly, like Christmas and can fly, well he can with a bit of help from my friend in the picture. In the dark my flames give off more light than a red nose, Santa's usual way of seeing where he is going.

St Davids III
A couple more photographs from St.Davids. Here I am still in the ruins of the bishops palace. It's been a ruin for a few hundred years now.
This is St Davids Cathedral. They started building it in the 1100's. It was badly damaged in the 1600's and badly restored in the 1790's. Hasn't been a lucky building! It looks very nice now, as does the city. You can see the mountains in the background.

St Davids II
I'm in the ruins of the bishops palace here. Behind me you can see St. David's Cathedral and the hill that leads up to the city itself. There are quite a few steps on the hill and they were quite large for my little legs so I flew up.

St Davids
I'm now in St Davids, Tyddewi in Welsh. It is in Pembrokeshire and is the smallest city in Britain. Here I am standing on a bridge over the river Alun. You can just see a bit of the ruins of the Bishops Palace behind me. It's lovely and sunny at the moment, wish it had been like this at the Carreg Cennen.

Carreg Cennen Castle II
Here's a couple more photo's from my visit to Carreg Cennen Castle. This is a view from the back of the castle where the sheer drop is. Its a very nice view and it looks like a gap in the rain showers here.
Some of the areas in the castle have a plaques describing what the room was. This one is for the Lord's Chamber on the second floor.
