Sunday 21 March 2010: Farewell Spit
Took a walk along the inner beach late morning. Headed over the massive dunes thinking that I'd walk all the way over to the outer beach but it was blowing quite a bit and some bad weather seemed to be approaching so I eventaully decided to head back the way I'd come.
The dunes always amaze me - white sand piled up in massive, ever-changing drifts as far as the eye can see. I love the ripples in the sand that the wind creates but I love the staunch grasses that survive on this fairly hostile environment too....
The grasses won out this time - maybe ripples will next time?!
