Birthday Stroll Along Tenby Esplanade

I'd almost let it slip and forgotten about it, but Tuesday was my birthday. Which also means it was Mr Chicky's birthday (if you see this Mr. C, sorry I've not been in touch, but Happy Birthday as well and drop us an email some time.)

Anyway, we took a trip out to get tea, but as Tenby is out of season, we ended up wandering around about 10 pubs to be told that food was not on for another hour or so as it was so quiet. We ended up in the Wimpy. Yes, they actually have a Wimpy here - no MacDonald's or Burger King, just a Wimpy. That sort of makes it like Cardiff circa 1981. :D

The sun was out, so we had a nice stroll along the Esplanade into the castle walls. Took a few snaps, late evening sun and lovely views, so here you are. They are bulldozing the entrance to South Beach - not sure what they're doing, if they're removing the Winter sands that have blown in or what - but that's what the tracks in the first image have come from.
