Any suggestions on when and where we should do the next Sydney Meeting?

Well I'm booked up every Saturday until after the long weekend.
So anything earlier than that will have to be on a Sunday for me to make it.

Long weekend is probably a bad idea as people will want to go away.

There's the Photo Market on 12/10/13
Leura fair is also on that weekend

Any thoughts guys?

My wife has a medical appointment in Sydney on the 11th so we are thinking of staying in town overnight with me going to the camera market on Saturday.

I am very interested in going to the Photo Market. I may most likely go as well.

50/50 might be in Thredbo next weekend for a nephew's birthday, looks like mountain biking (not Skiing )

Jet Boats up the North Coast the weekend after that.

Bush Camping the long weekend somewhere in the sticks near Canberra / Western Snowys.

Might be interested in the Camera Market though on the 12th. Ooooo........ Bathhurst 1000 is on the same weekend.



The Navy Review on the Harbour promises to be pretty good even though I'm going to miss it.

IFR Schedule of Events | International Fleet Review 2013

from Thursday 3rd - about 11am Tall ships sail in, on the map on that webpage they'll pass pretty close to Bradleys Head (nr Taronga zoo) . Bradleys head would be good spot as the sun will be behind. Anywhere like Mrs Mac's chair you'll be looking into the sun. They berth in Darling Harbour after that.

Friday 4th about 40 other foreign warships coming in and anchoring at various points in the Harbour - some of my local group is going in to get a day trip ferry ticket and just ride back and forth on the Manly ferry taking photos.

Saturday 5th - sail past review of the fleet and RAAF anf Navy Air wing fly past.

Saturday evening - light show & fireworks seems to be a Navy themed mini "VIVID" festival.

Hey, that's a good list!

Just a warning to anyone thinking of heading to the fleet review this weekend.

transport in the afternoon is going to be horrendous.
You may want to get there early.

Here are the details:

$2 Entry.

See you all there?

Bruce

Yup! See you there! Its a bummer that the event is only 4 1/2 hours long. I thought it would have been longer.

Hey, looks like I wont be able to make it tomorrow as I have to go to work

Sorry.

Mount Wilson red leaves please ..

I think the autumn colours start to really pick up around April or May.
There's events on during both long weekends in April, how about either 12 or 13 April then?

I'm in either way

I thought you need to wait till end of May for the red leaves..

I need car pool .....

12/13 April is perfect for me.. But I don't drive. ?? I live in Lane Cove.

By late May the leaves are generally past their best.
It might be worth checking closer to the day to see how they're going,
the best colour usually only stays around for a week or so.

I'm sure we can sort out someone to pick you up from Lane Cove if you need.
