Parrog From My Childhood

Parrog has changed very little in the 4 decades that I have been visiting and probably for decades before my arrival.  I first visited as a child each year and now take my own daughter there each year too.  The houses remain the same, only the faces change (some of them anyway - we're almost all repeat visitors).  It is totally unspoilt by the modern world yet has everything you need. The activities my daughter Megan and I do are the same that I did with my family as a child. The halyards clinking in the Estuary are music to my ears.  Newport and Parrog are my boltholes and I know that if life gets tough, I can always escape to the safe haven of my childhood.  There is no place on earth like it for me and I have spent many happy holidays there - long may it stay the same.
