Beaches were busy this warm public holiday Monday (school holidays too!). Didn't even try to snag a park nearby - parked in town and walked up (about 10mins stroll). #swim #ocean #NewcastleBeach #NewcastleNSW
Swam at the Ocean Baths since the surf looked too busy to be fun (dodging overstimulated kids or loose boogie boards not my thing). Baths were still busy but way more enjoyable. #swim #ocean #NewcastleOceanBaths #NewcastleNSW
Hard to get a decent pic with all the people around. Trying to avoid showing too much of peoples' skin (so many sunbathers in some spots it was like a wall of bums rising above the pool edge - one of the times i'm really thankful i'm so short sighted 😂). Nothing wrong with them showing skin and worshipping the sun but try to avoid stuff i wouldn't want shared on the internet personally.
Offerings on the altars of sun and sea. #ocean #swim #NewcastleOceanBaths #NewcastleNSW
One of my fave little lanes, beside the cafe. #laneway #garden #StreetGarden #walk #StreetArt
