Gadzooks ARTHUR & ROBERT!!

Good to see you both found a soft rock on the breakwater to check out this salt water action.

A double dose of warm Aussie thanks for your collective great feedback.

Robert: nYou really have to be here during autumn/winter to fully appreciate the afternoon lighting at this beach. Ideal.
