Hopefully someone can add some photos ON this thread. ^

Think this is the first ozfest ever, with no attendee pix.

Sorry, I only have the high resolution images, so I've linked them here.

Some brave souls climbing the sand dune for sandboarding.

Our bus driver shows us all how it is really done!

Bus driver coming down the dune...

... and through the water

I'm hoping to find the group photo taken at Cape Reinga this evening.

Audrey, if you sign up for a free IMGUR or photobucket account, you can load a 500 Meg image into there, and post it here. Fast and easy. Takes 20 seconds.

I wouldn't dream of touching Leon's photos!

Here is the group photo at Cape Reinga, the northenmost tip of "mainland" NZ.

I have tried the code for the photo again tonight and it isn't working. I have emailed Fullers regarding the problem. I am happy go down and see them in the morning if you would like me to CrankyChick

Leon didn't actually take that photo - a random passer-by held the camera and pressed the button.

What a fantastic weekend! Huge thanks to crankychick and wijomas for their meticulous organization, to Audrey for producing the name tags, and to all of the attendees for visiting this part of the world - a wonderful group of people who are a pleasure to know through FT and AFF.

Special thanks to kpc for organizing the Sunday evening meal at Euro. It's no wonder folks return again and again.

Had the best time and already looking forward to next year's event on the Gold Coast.
