My Holiday in Tenby

Saturday 1st November

This day has finally arrived. I have been nagging my mum and dad for weeks since they had told me that we were going back to Tenby on our holiday.
You see I have been their before, last year in fact and had such an amazing time and I’ve wanted to go back ever since.
Mum packed the suitcase and dad is put them in the car and then we were off.

Arrival Day-
Saturday 1st November
Once we were settled into Amroth cottage, a lovely holiday cottage in Tenby. I was begging mum and dad to take me to the beach to build sandcastles.
As its November we had to rap up warm. Mum put my Coat, hat, scarf and gloves on.
We didn’t have to walk far as the cottage is a few minutes away from the beach. The tide was in so dad and I built a huge sandcastle with a fort going around it that went right down to the waters edge. I decorated the sandcastle with pebbles, seed weed and shells that I found around the beach. It looked great!!
We also went to a firework display that was held at Tenby’s rugby field. Dad bought me a hotdog while the fireworks went off.

Day 2
Sunday 2nd November
Off to Folly Farm today. Yippy!!! I bottle-feed the baby goats took a tractor and trailer ride around the farm park. I held a baby bunny rabbit. It was so soft and fluffy.
I went on loads of the rides in the indoor funfair and played for hours in the indoor play area. I even had my face painted like a tiger.
Just before we went home dad took me on the go-karts we went so fast round the track. Dad drove and I waved to mum every time we passed her


Day 3
Monday 3rd November
As it was raining today mum and dad took me to Heatherton to play in the indoor play area which had a ball pits, slides ladders to climb and ropes. It was so much fun. When I was playing dad went and had a go on the driving range as he loves golf.

Day 4 Tuesday 4th November
We went a boat trip today and saw lots of different types of birds flying around the cliffs. The boat stopped really close for us to see the seals. One was lying on a rock. Mum took a photo as the seal was looking straight at us.
Its mum’s birthday today and dad had also booked her a massage.

Wednesday 5th Nov
10am time to go home now – Had a fabulous time in Tenby like always!!
Hope we go back next year.

Jemima, age 4 stayed in Halfways between the 14 - 21st April.

Saturday 14th April - It was 5am when I jumped on mum and dads bed shouting - "it's time to go on holiday!" they didn't seem quite as enthusiastic but I will work on them!After breakfast Mum loaded the car and we were off! I couldn't wait to get there, Luke (my 2 year old brother) just slept the whole time, even through Dads weird singing! The wheels on the bus go squeal squeal squeal! When we arrived in St Davids we went for lunch, the weather was lovely so we sat outside. After dinner we went to our holiday cottage. It was amazing, the garden was huge!

Sunday 15th April - Today was another sunny day. We went to Solva, it is a great harbour with loads of boats! We went for a walk along the coast path, Dad carried Luke in a back carrier, he though it was brill!

Monday 16th April - Today we went to Skomer Island, we saw lots of birds and some big fat rabbits. We walked all the island, it was covered in blue bells and looked very pretty. Luke was in his back carrier again! On the way back, the man who was driving the boat pointed out a one-eyed seal called Nelson! he was very cute.

Tuesday 17th April - Today we went to the beach at Whitesands! I have only been to the beach once before and it was much bigger than I remembered. I built a sand castle and had an ice cream.

Wednesday 18th April - Me and Mum went horseriding! This was my favorite part of the holiday, I rode a brown pony called Pepsi. We had tea in Newgale.

Thursday 19th April - Today we stayed at Halfways. Luke and I played in the garden all day, had a picnic and played hide and seek. I painted a picture of Pepsi to show Nan when we get home.

Friday 20th April - Today we went to Newgale beach, we flew a kite which was great fun. Then we went to St Davids and had a picnic by the bishops palace - it was great. Later we went to Newport and did some shopping.

Saturday 21st April - its time to go home! I am a bit sad but mum said we will come back again soon. I will be glad to see Murphy (our cat) and tell my Nan all about my holiday!
