Weird thing... did Qala point today, starting at the fort and walking west toward Hondoq. Left my beachbag on the rocks below the old lookout and walked on round to Cable where I sunbathed for an hour or so. On the way back, just past the salt pans, a police launch came in close to the shore (luckily I'd seen the launch meandering so I'd put on a sarong). He hailed me and asked if I had a bag along the beach, I replied that, yes it was mine. He told me that someone had phoned in and reported that somebody may have drowned! Anyway, too many walkers, runners and boats for a peaceful afternoon. Maybe I'll try the pools round from Dahlet Qorrot next week.
Both lovely spots on the eastern side of the island ;)
