The day started with sun, and I made a solo after-lunch trek. I walked to the beach for a flat white at Charlie Farley's. I read more of Outliers--what a great book--as I drank the coffee and watched the waves come to shore. Then, one hour tramping about.
I walked west along the beach and found the Seaview Road stairwell. This is better than walking up to Seaview on the road--no shoulder for pedestrians.
They put a bench 80% of the way up. Good motivation. After a breather, I found a second, shorter stair to the top.
The view and then, across the street...
Another reserve for walking.
Over the fence and along the fenceline to find...
a grove. And then, it starting raining hard. I wasn't the only one out in the rain.
As this woman passed me on horseback she said "well, not as tropical as we were expecting after all!" and she rode down to the beach with her dogs not noticing the rain at all.
I took the stairs down, and she rode along the beach, dogs running madly back and forth while dragging sticks about.
Then home to have a warm drink and to watch Dr. No with Benjamin.
