Such a lovely place, a beautiful day too. We drove the 200 odd kms up the coast on Thursday.
The people we spoke to about Stewie were great and told us where to go to see where it had all happened.
On a day like this it was hard to imagine how awful it was on Easter Saturday.
I walked the 5km round trip and we could see how dangerous the waves would have been and how fast the tide would come in and out through the very narrow gap, it was a miracle any one survived.
Later we had lunch and spoke to the local store keeper who had organised the early search, the cliffs are limestone, full of cracks, sharp edges not a nice place.
I felt quite emotional but so glad I had been there to see it all. The photos just dont do it justice and I just wish I knew how to enlarge them.
We are now home, I have more lovely photos of the last few days.
I am terribly tired and this wretched cold is not helping.
Washing is being slowly done, and I am slowly trying to put stuff away and tidy up
Oh I think I know what to do, click html and not compose, hope this works!

It does look like a beautiful place, Pen. At least you can keep that in your memory. It seems to have been very much the decision to go out in such weather - but that is destiny, isn't it? We have been thinking of you all such a lot during this time and how hard it must be for you all to come to terms with it.
He has gone back into the Light from whence he came.
Lots of love,
Virginia

I can imagine the need to be there and view where the loss of Stewie happened, even though the sadness would be great.
Hope your wretched cold soon fades away, Penny!
Something you needed to do to move on. It must have been very hard for you Penny. Hope your cold clears up soon.
