SYD Pre Ozfest Balmoral Beach coffee/b'fast Tues 24th May, 2011

A small group, hosted by two local Ft'ers are having coffee at beautiful Balmoral Beach, one of Sydney's Middle harbour beaches next Tuesday morning.
As there may be visitors en-route to OZfest, we thought we would extend the invite to any who would like to join us.

When: 8:00am to 09:30am. Tues 24th May 2011
Where: Balmoral Beach, The Esplanade , Balmoral
At the cafe (former boatshed) over the water , next to the enclosed swimming enclosure. The closest intersection is The Esplanade and Coronation Rd.

Hosts: DownUnderFlyer and JohnSydney2000
Attending: 3 so far

Please pm us if you might be able to make it. It is a lovely spot for morning coffee.
With the greatest respect to a blog site, I have found this photo of my local beach - http://20somethingsinsydney.blogspot...ydney-gem.html

Happy and safe travels to all enroute to Darwin.

Nice one, guys!
The BiziBBs will be hopefully sitting in the QP or QF842 at this time but not only is this a beautiful location, it has a lot of history, which I am sure you can discuss with them.

It's an old weekend date location I highly recommend!

Thanks for your comments

Hi B

Tis a great spot, almost unknown to our visitors.
Thanks for your little note, look forward to catching up in DRW.
Now, totally off topic, because this is the Qantas forum, thanks for all your voluntary efforts as a mod on the MR forum. It is greatly appreciated.
Safe travels, John.

Thanks - and we picked the right morning

Thanks to my two other walkers - it was a very nice morning and FT catchup. We went on the right morning, as it was cold and blustry soon after. We must do it again. John.
