I finally got to visit the gorgeous Torquay beach!
It's the end of our fifth week on the road, and we've seen and done so much I couldn't even list it all here.
Some wonderful, some challenging, some surprising and some things I never need to do again.
We've had quite a lot of good weather so far. Today was another of those days.
After feeding and walking the dogs, and having our own breakfast, we headed out on a little adventure. We went to the nearby beach town of Torquay.
For those new to our adventures, we're currently in southern Victoria (Australia), and it's gorgeous.
I decided to explore the beach and, indeed the whole of town, bare foot.
It feela good to be earthed.
And I'm so grateful to be in house with dogs that silently sleep through the night.

So, that and is Fishos. I got stitches in my foot there from a fin cut surfing when I was 14 and a few years ago got run over by a board there and got six stitches in my forearm. On a big day it can be good. I have photos of me and Dad racing the horses up that beach. Couldn't do it now.
And Point Danger, yep, that's where I spent a LOT of time as a kid as Dad used to windsurf then kiteboard there in the summer when the wind blew right. Dad used to do a drive by the 'point' nearly every day. Where's Dad? Down the point. Many walks from there to Jan Juc along the cliffs. Chats with people you knew on the way. And when my boy was little, all the Mums would take the littles down the beach all day there because it's a gentle place for them. Many rice crackers and grapes! Honestly I have a million zillion memories there. Now it's often too busy for me to bother.
God, the stories I have just on that stretch of beach .. a million. Let alone the town itself. My country.
It was all pretty quiet today just before it rained, but I could just imagine it packed out in school holidays with some surf. I thought I recognized some spots, but I think it was more likely memories of your photos from your posts. Like the carved wooden seats along the walkway. They have a parkrun on the gravel behind whites beach we will probably do it on Saturday.
Oh fun. Those carved wooden seats are great. I know the artist. He is also in a local band called Moonah. Today would have been lovely. And the water is warm still. Go swimming!
Definitely after parkrun on Saturday, today just disappeared to quick
Good to hear you have some doggie room mates that let you sleep now. Must be a neat little town to walk around bare foot. Glad you are enjoying your trip overall.

It is comforting to hear how each week on this journey becomes a valuable lesson. Accepting that life presents us with both beauty and challenges, and having the wisdom to discern what nourishes us from what does not, are pillars of profound growth.
Connecting with nature, like walking barefoot on the beach, anchors us to our essence and reminds us of the importance of simplicity and gratitude. In every experience, even the most difficult ones, there is an opportunity to strengthen our character and expand our understanding of the world and ourselves. It is in this duality that we find the true richness of life.
