Yes Tony. I don't know what Amity Quays stands for. It may be the place
where the Amity put off the passengers and crew in 1826.There is nothing
there and certainly not the replica of the ship.
If you scroll right a little way you will see a dark green lake and a
silver roof a short distance to the north. On the picture I see there is
an image of a cameraon the shore of the lake. That is where the ship is
but it is not visible on the picture. The silver roof to the north is the
Old Gaol at the entrance to the road to the Amity site. You may have
visited that and got yourself locked in the dark cell where they put the
recalcitrant prisoners and kept them in the complete dark till they
learned their lesson! They were usually aboriginals.
The ship is just visible but partly obscured by the image of the camera.
It just looks like a smudge to the right of the camera..
To the right of the lake is the Residency Museum with about five cars
parked in the parking area.
