I'd add the same. Photos on my website cannot be downloaded as I have that feature turned off, and they are not in original size there anyway. If you see something you want, send me a PM and an e-mail address and I'll be happy to send you the original(s).

Thank you to the organisers for a successful weekend. For my first Oz Fest I had a lot of fun and looking forward for the next one. PS. I heard Coffs Harbour has a QP now
Here's a photo I took while in one of the Fighterworld planes.

Jan and I second that. We're so impressed as to how well organized you Ozzies are. Hope to see you next year, especially if the Sunshine Coast.

Hunter Valley video
First real test of my brand-new GoPro! A few minutes of scenery en route, then walking through the winery and pouring the first wine. Our driver's description of the terrain starts at about 3:10 in.

Many thanks to the organizers of this year's Ozfest - another roaring success. It was wonderful to see so many familiar faces and also to meet a few FTers for the first time, including JohnK's beautiful new family.
Already looking forward to next year's Ozfest.
Safe travels to all.
