A brisk, crisp and clear
this morning on the walk with no indication that it was going to get a bit
gloomy in the afternoon.
Greg downed a hot breakfast and headed for the
beach on the bike. After he got to the city he followed the Torrens to West
Beach cycleway, turned right at the ocean and stopped at Henley Beach a few km
up the path. The ride from the city is completely off road on a great bike/walk
path. Along the way there are fantastic facilities for kids and big-kids.
At Henley Beach the local council has done a
sterling job transforming a fairly ordinary beach front into a real happening
place. The paths, grassed areas, seating, the pier and eateries are just
lovely. Been coming here for years and it's at its best.
After a coffee and some BYO snacks Greg headed to Glenelg Beach. A bit more touristy and busy, but just the same great facilities and good access to the beach. Too darn cold for this soft Qlder, stayed well away from the cold looking water.
It was about this time that the sun went AWOL; time for Greg to head home. Took a slightly different route home but on a bike path for most of the way. 50km round trip.
The rest of the afternoon was spent doing a spot
of shopping and cleaning/tidying the van for Wendy's return tonight.
