Boats, boats and more boats.
The Spirit of Tasmania was out doing daytrips. I think the Spirit and the Queenscliff to Sorrento ferry are friends.
A departing seaplane.
There was a little eye candy around, but not a lot.
A tram, wow. Jayne tells you about it
here.
While I knew about the steam train to Sorrento back beach, I did not know its old platform was still there half way up the steep hill near the jetty and nor did I know that there used to be a bridge for passengers to get from the jetty where they had alighted from a steamer to the tram.

ReplyDeleteLolly Gobble Bliss Bombs thin on the sand then. Summer's still young though.
None of them LS. Just the usual coke cans and ciggie butts.
ReplyDeleteIt's a sad day when the only notable butts you see on the beach are of the ciggie variety.
ReplyDeleteand absolutely thousands of people used to travel on that back beach tram. I have a history of it I will post you.
ReplyDeleteDown on the ferry pylons there are sea swallows. very small and cute and they can hang on in gale-force winds. when the ferry docks they all rush at the side of it. I can't imagine what the attraction is.
I love Sorrento, I miss not going to our friend's beach house in Rye.. what a lovely part of the World!

I can correctly say there weren't any great beach butts LS.
ReplyDeleteThanks Ann. Great. I don't know anything of the sea swallows. Btw, the iron bridge was removed and reused to cross the Yarra somewhere. Any idea?
It was a hard drive in very heavy traffic Cazzie, but worth it. Rye is amazingly busy now. I always thought of it small compared to Rosebud.
