That's a good option. Another option is to just call. Not a good option if he'll almost always fire again on the turn. If you are willing to see a showdown unimproved on a raggy board, calling can be better than raising.
One of the good things about defending against continuation bets is that your opponents will make them less often.
BTW, there's a small section in HOH2 about defending against continuation bets.

I don't really have any great answers besides what I posted above, but I think a reluctance to defend against continuation bets is pretty much the reason you laid down a premium hand preflop. A big part of NL is playing off your opponents' fear. Maybe this is something for you to work on. Just a thought.

I do play in spots. I'm just nowhere near as experienced at NL as I am at limit. Take my advice with a huge grain of salt. Mostly I just like to read my own writing.
