Every trip has milestones, and this beach was one of ours. We'd got there! There seemed to be slimmest chance a few days back that that would actually happen, so cause for much celebration all round. And commiseration for our fallen comrade. He would have been loving this more than life itself. What on earth was he up to right now?
