St Donat's castle - my college revisited
On the south coast of Wales, in between Cardiff and Swansea, the United World College of the Atlantic is situated. I studied there in 1981-1983 and now revistited with my family and doggies for the first time. The main school building is an old castle, St Donat's, where our majestic barbets fit so well in! They were so happy when they got to run freely on the grass around the area, and on the coast. We also took a long sunny walk to Nashpoint Light house. So special to be back with all my loved ones!
