Canal Rocks ~ Dunsborough, South Western Australia |

I LOVE climbing on rocks, especially when there is water
around. Something about it just FEELS adventurous. Perhaps
it's the smell in the air, or the feel of the ancient rocks
under hand and foot. It's wonderful to get close to the water's
edge and watch the waves. So, I thought I'd share that with
Devon.
First, he'd have to learn to climb. Let's see if he takes
to it... |
  |
|
He loves it. |
|
|
  |
| We climbed all over the wave-worn rocks. I could see him gaining
confidence and skill. I also noticed that he was aware of when
he needed help, and asked for it. Very clever boy. |
 On
the way back from the main canal, Devon saw a few boys climbing
the fence and heading off to the rock pinnacle far above us.
"Can we go there?" he asked. "Sure,"
was my reply.
With the help of his mother, I taught him how to climb wooden
fences, and away we went, up the mountainside. |
  |
  |
After reaching the top, we found a crevasse and began to
climb down it, Devon first! By this time I was comfortable
with his sense of caution, and just HAD to take some photographs...
|
I set the timer to photograph to two of us on the rock
edge. Our feet are actually dangling in the air!
|
  |
| |
| We had so much fun, we decided to visit again
the following morning before returning to Fremantle. As you
will see from the photos below, Devon gained an immense amount
of confidence in such a short space of time. How grateful I
am that we shared this with him. What a wonderful thing to do
on our Babymoon. Mummy and her tummy came out amongst the rocks
as well. |

 Yes,
that's us, way up there.
Great photograph Tila!
I had a wonderful time. Thank you Devon. It's a pleasure
to be your father.
