We drove to Newcastle to see this .........
.... the Pasha Bulker that ran aground at Nobby's Beach and has so far refused to budge.
This was the closest we (and thousands of others) could get to it.
Even at that distance the ship's size was awesome.
The best view was some distance away along the foreshore. I think the authorities lost an opportunity to take advantage of this spectacle - instead of closing the beach they could have organised conducted tours and charge for them !
