Nelson Bay - Day 3

I'm back at the same internet cafe as yesterday, posting before we hit the road down to Newcastle. We just finished with a quick, 2-hour boat tour of the bay, and I'm still trying to keep myself from swaying back and forth as if I were still on the water.

Yesterday was spent mostly seeing the sights of the area. The interesting thing about here is just how much it seems to resemble Door County. The way Dad and I have kind of been thinking about it is that Newcastle is Green Bay, and Nelson Bay is Little Sister. It's kind of a complex and incomplete analogy, but it helps to conceptualize the area, I feel, for those who have only seen pictures of the area. That is, after I get internet on my laptop and can post pictures again.

The plan afterwards is to take the rental car down to Newcastle, and to check into the beach hotel sometime tonight. I will update tonight if we can find a reliable internet connection.

Laters!
