To the lighthouse
So we headed over to the lighthouse at Cape Schanck.
I’m ashamed to say that the Fairlie Entourage had never actually visited this site before. I can’t understand how we’ve missed it, as it is a spectacular part of Victoria.
We went on a short tour of the lighthouse itself, which was fascinating and allowed us access to the balcony right up at the base of the light itself. From there, the views over the Cape were magnificent. However, the battery on my camera had gone flat by the time we reached Cape Schanck (too many photos at the Hot Springs and failing to recharge it before we left home…) so I had to resort to pics with my phone.
By this stage, a strange humid mist had come in. I think the iPhone camera makes it look more brooding than it actually was.
At the beach we headed towards the Pulpit Rock in the background, exploring the rock pools as we went.
Of course, the inevitable happened and The Impossible Princess slipping right into one. Wet shoes, wet socks, wet clothes. She wasn’t sure whether to laugh or cry, but with Britannia cheering her on, she chose to have a quick cry and then laugh about it.
