Gold for me and, (possibly) Mrs TK. I am hoping the chance to visit her brother ~5 hours away will be a sufficient lure.
Downside is my annual longhaul work trip falls in May as well. Clashed in 2022, but thankfully was good for 2023. Due to be in SYD next year so maybe things will all align...

i was really looking forward to this one because I missed 2023 and like Cairns a lot. Unfortunately, when I went to put it in my calendar I realized that it conflicts with my 60th college (I think that's uni in Ozspeak) reunion. Since I missed my 55th - it conflicted with my late wife's 50th, and since she had come to my 50th hers took priority - this one's a must, especially since the number of my classmates who are no longer in a position to be there keeps growing.
So, sadly, color me Bronze. Adelaide in 2025 is still a plan, though,

We are still in Sydney (head home tomorrow, the Vivid drone show was very cool) - put us down as Gold for now.
