Hello again, faithful readers. Here is the second part of my posts about the trip I took to the UK this year. This time, it's all about the time we spent in Wales, nearby a little town called Rhossili. It's a beautiful little town, and they are trying to keep it that way because nobody can build anything there anymore.

This post focuses on a geographical feature called Worm's Head. It is an island off of the coast for most of the day, though for about a 4 hour period, the tide comes in and people are able to walk to it. Here's what it looks like:
Worm's Head, as an island
We made the walk out to Worm's Head, which was open from about 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at that time. Apparently it's a bit dangerous. I think the danger is only if you try to make it across when the tide it too high and you can get taken out to sea. For us it was just a walk across a bunch of rocks and then scaling up the hill.
Danger!

A pretty cool natural bridge on Worm's head. We didn't make it that far.
This is when the tide was coming back in. The waves would reach higher and higher, filling in the space in the rocks.

Most of the houses in the area had driveways installed with these cross bars. Apparently cars can traverse across, but animals cannot.

Thanks for reading! I'll post again soon.
