Storming Great Welsh Castle's day

Great location for the 3rd of the day. I wonder if anyone will come by water 

FACT This is the 'brown as owls' castle beloved of Dylan Thomas, Laugharne's most famous resident.

A little bit more about my Storming Great Welsh Castle's day.

The plan is to start in Pembroke and work my way across South Wales Storming castles at different events as I make my way. 

I have followed the Geocache event rules, (all events are 10 miles away from each other or 5 hours apart)

Looking forward to assembling a group of Geocachers ready to storm each castle through out the day!

List of Castles are, Pembroke Castle GCAQKVQ, Tenby Castle GCAQKZ1, Laugharne Castle GCAQKZ5, Neath Castle GCAQKZT, Ogmore Castle GCAQKZX, Caerphilly Castle GCAQM03, Caldicot Castle GCAQM08

I'm not sure if i will try and find somewhere to stay in Pembroke on the friday night or drive there very early Saturday before the first event. 

If anyone would like to join me for the whole day, drop me a message 

Hope to see how our Welsh Legends TBs are getting on if they are able to attend 

(I have renamed the trackables Welsh Legends as I have had to expand the group :) and not all are royalty anymore. But they are all Welsh!)

Gruffudd Ap Llywelyn

Owain Glyndŵr

Owen Tudor

Rhodri the Great

Llywelyn the Great

King Tewdrig

UPDATE Is that between them all they've hit over 31 different caches and I've had at least 53 separate logs (as of 2/4)

⭐️My little Romans will not be attending if that helps certain cachers decide if they want to come (this is for you snufflepig)⭐️

☀️☀️It's nicer to Storm Castles when it's dry and sunny, so fingers crossed for a good forecast☀️☀️
