Overnight showers meant overcast and atmospheric dawn skies when we went for a walk from Yallingup Beach to Smiths Beach. It was a relatively strenuous scramble over the rocky track and beach sand but so worth it to hear the surf and breathe the fresh salty air.

And what sand! Beautiful smooth sand and we almost had the beach to ourselves.

After breakfast it was a trip down Caves Road past wineries and forest to Boranup Gallery, Margaret River, the always divine Gabriel Chocolate, and Vasse Virgin for the nicest local produce.
And to bookend the day, a return journey to Smiths Beach to dine at Lamont's. My Dad turns 79 tomorrow and it was a fittingly low-key but meaningful celebration.
