Bring blankets or chairs to sit on, and anything else you can think of.
ALL are welcome. THe more the merrier !
Hope to see you there

Just keep your ears peeled for the SA accents... :ilikeit: No - I have just emailed Mandy - and mentioned that we would have to give our mobile no for just that reason - as it is a huge park and many entrances......

Mandy - 0401729111

Me - 0449682227


Just give us a call once inside and we can direct you!!! We are aiming at a spot near the kiddies pools.......looking forward to seeing you there!

Hi Erica

I normall put up the SA and Aussie flags, makes it so much easier that trying to listen for the accents.
Are you planning on being near Mussel Pools?

Hi Enrica - it is the main entrance to the Park - where the tram stops and starts, the coffee shops are located, car Museum etc......a big kiddies pool which is popular in summer, so extremely hard to miss - basically in the hub of things. Mandy and I will get there a little earlier to secure a spot by the kids pools. Everyone can now take our mobile no's and find us easier like that. Thanks for the link on the map of Park - will come in handy!! Hope to see you there!!

Hi Lisa,

We are in Butler, we can meet at a certain time on Sunday morning and then follow through together, then you can at least meet us before, if you would like to do that?

Let me know.

Cheers
