Our walk along the cliffs near Petrel's Cove today was interesting. the sand has really gone, what is normally a lovely, but dangerous sandy beach is all rock, Depps beach further along has some sand but there are rocks exposed that I have never seen before. Some with very interesting shapes. Double click to enlarge. The shag was a few days ago when we walked along the beach near Kent Reserve. On this mornings walk we also saw a large seal bobbing around, and also a 2 meter shark who was surfing along a wave, there were surfers out too but they dont seem to take much notice of sharks unless they get bitten. At first I thought it was a dolphin who love to surf in on waves but we both realised it was very shark shaped and didnt come up for air. No photos unfortunately as my little camera wasnt quick enough.
A lovely but tiring morning, the sun was out and if it wasnt for the fact that for some reason my knee didnt much like me so I got slower and slower getting back to the car.
I am now doing some hand sewing and watching the football. What a lazy person.

After that lovely walk you need to put your feet up.
Lovely sights. Is the sand gone because the sea is rising, or has it washed into the ocean? I wish I was there walking with you. I love the combination of the rocks and the ocean, very wild as if it hasn't been tamed.
Must be getting cold down there now. Time for soups and open fires.
Hi P - I never tire of your walk images - so much like my own - except you have the beauty of the sea and I have the mountains - but good to share. Hope you are progressing OK with your excesses etc. Go well. B
