September 24th, I went to the Historic Precinct to-day which included the One Mile Jetty. 2 years ago a section of the wharf was destroyed by fire, and is still being rebuilt by the Historical Society, so now you can only go out about ½ mile. You can walk along the Jetty but I opted to ride on the small train called “The Coffee Pot”. There was a strong wind blowing today and was very cold out on the Jetty. The view from the Water Tower Lookout was impressive. Went through The Railway Museum which included the Shearers Hall of Fame and a display with video covering the recent discovery of the wrecks of the warship “HMAS Sydney II” and the German Cruiser “Kormoran” found off the Western Australian Coast.
