Laugharne

Out of Pembrokeshire and into Carmarthenshire with our U3A walking group. We chose a very wet day to visit Laugharne. But all being keen walkers we were suitably attired and it did not worry us at all. Rupert the dog of course loved every minute, found every bit of mud he could and also every puddle!

Laugharne Castle by the car park.

Eleven of us set off away from the Castle on a 4/5 mile circular walk. I think this was by far the largest group that we have had, so it was very pleasing to see some more new members.

The footpath took us past the salt flats, unfortunately almost totally obscured by mist.

It all looked very ethereal, but even from the footpath we could see that there was plenty of wild life in the shape of sea birds paddling about in the low tide marshes. Particularly oystercatchers and godwits.
