On Sunday afternoon we made the most of the sunny weather and went for a nice walk on the Northern coast of Cape Pembroke. Simon enjoyed a biy of off road driving to get there. I had walked that area once before but in pouring rain but Simon had not seen that stretch of coastline so it made a nice change.
There are several pretty beaches although several of them, like this one, are fenced off because of mine fields. There are also nice views past the Tussac Islands across Port William.
We walked on the first unmined beach we came to but then it was time to head for home. There were some interesting patches of red sand which is lighter than the yellow sand and often makes pretty patterns on the surface of the beach or dunes. It is known as garnet sand but I doubt it is actually garnets.
As we walked back to the car the sun was going down over the distant hills.
Soon after we got home there was a glorious sunset. As you may be able to see in these pictures I still have quite a few plants flowering in the bed in front of our house despite some hard frosts recently. They include antirhynums, marigolds and cornflowers.
