Just finished with Laguna lookout. Probably going to hike part of the trail by the beach depending how I feel after I make it back to the bottom.

Whilst there is a loose alliance of people who make up the organising group, this year the bulk of the work of putting the Do together was left to Itsalongwaydown.
There is quite a bit of effort to research, plan and book two dinner locations and activities for the Saturday including transport. It doesn't just happen by itself.
Thank you Bill. I am sure I still owe you wine for your efforts!

Many thanks to Itsalongwaydown and the organising committee for another successful Ozfest.
The dinner venues were excellent choices and my seafood spaghetti meal at Bistro C last night was outstanding.
It was great to catch up with everyone and it's just a shame I could not spend longer with such an interesting and friendly bunch of Flyertalkers!
See you all next year...
