Nelsons Bay & The Road home...........

After checking out of our hotel we decided to take a scenic drive of Nelsons bay, we took a drive up the coast line of port stephens and pulled in where some pelicans (I think thats what they are!) were hanging around where the fishers gut the fish. We then took a trip up to the lighthouse and the views were tropical!

We decided to hit the road and see some stuff on the way home we pulled into the 'National Ray & Shark Centre' on the way home and had a look in side the place didn't look up to much, infact it seemed to be a barn with a few tanks here and there, the brochure was a tad misleading with its pricing also so we skipped. On the way home we decided to take a trip through Newcastle to check a few bits...the place is an absolute dive, very run down, it reminded me off Detroit city in Robocop or a bad suburb of Dublin! (Not going on a rant here as the good outweights the bad here in Oz!).

The drive home was fine we went across a different bridge (ANZAC Bridge) and the GPS accidentely took us down the Bus only slip road, no harm done...but you never know whats in the post!
