Spent the morning at Gantheaume point. Last night while we watched the sunset at Cable beach, the water was just a medium to reflect the sun. But now in the daylight the water is completely transformed. It is the main attraction. Vivid intense blue meets the iron-red rocks, sometimes crashing into each other, or from some angles they merge and align in patterns.
We explore along the coast, ducking in and out of rocky formations, or up over the water in places. The further we walk the more we leave the sounds of other tourists behind.
After a swim at the caravan park we head back to cable beach lifesaving club for beers and another sunset.
After sunset we go to see a movie at the ancient cinema: Sun Pictures.
Star light shines on us in the open air theatre and the sound of aeroplanes or a neighbour on the phone punctuate the film. In some contexts that could be distracting, but our whole trip has been filled with connection to people, it’s impossible to shy away from them in campgrounds, or on walking trails, or now in an open cinema. The story telling and camaraderie with strangers throughout our trip has been part of the fabric of it. So the interruptions are familiar and fun.
