We have been out with the walking group today to Stockton and walked along to the breakwater. It has been a beautiful day and after our walk we had lunch at a cafe on Stockton beach.
This is a view of Newcastle from along the breakwater.
@ludwigsdiana The people fishing in the little tinnie were living dangerously because there is a lot of shipping traffic moving in and out of the port.
@pcoulson It would make a nice night scene from Stockton. I have taken night shots from Newcastle but not this side of the river at night.
@maggiemae It was a beautiful day. We have had a few really warm days lately but now I believe rain is on its way for the next week.
@kjarn It is lovely viewing the city from the Stockton side of the river.
@happypat Thanks Pat, the little boat is another tinnie.
@busylady Yes the early settlers named a lot of places here after their namesakes in the UK. Newcastle was named because of the coal and steel port of the early 1800s.
