. . .to the Aussies. The cup boats were already gone, and so were the crowds. Aussie souvenirs were cheaper than dirt. It was a great visit. Drove up to Herreshoff's the next day. The museum was still in one building across the street. Halsey, his mother, and his aunt (Sidney's sister) were the only ones there. Fantastic history lesson. They were some of or the first water skiers! A couple of Aussies dropped in just before we left.
