So for many of us here in the deep dark south, we have a long weekend coming up in early March. What are your plans?
I'm just waiting on swmbo's cousin to decide, but think we may end up down Phillip Island, Wilsons Prom or West Gippsland way.
Im going to Ulupna Island on the murray
All welcome to come along ;D
Heading down to Indented head that weekend, will be interesting to check it out

Heading to the Gippsland Lakes for the Marlay Point overnight yacht race with the old man.
We've been doing it for 15 years now, it's a great race with over 100 boats taking part.
Just need a nice sou-westerley to kick in right on start time. ;D
SWMBO and the girls love it cos they get to stay in a unit right on the canal in Paynesville ;D
I'm riding in the Karri Cup in Northcliffe. Its a MTB race. I'm not fit enough to do the 100km, so I'm only doing the 50km event. That'll probably kill me too!! Camping on the rec ground for the weekend.
Some dickhead (best mate) decided it was a good idea to get married on the long weekend (Farkwit) and I'm the best man (even bigger Farkwit) so looks like I'm not going anywhere. A least the piss is for free ;D

makes the surprise anniversary even closer for us to travel. Macus did you organise the Donkey or are you still waiting on availability ?
I had to settle for a Llama Tony due to Danny's last time with the poor Donkey

you obviously have not been to a mainlanders surprise 20th wedding anniversary before or you wouldn't be asking but there is always either a Donkey, Llama or a Mongolian snapping turtle involved they stopped the columbian yak turned out they were used to smuggle drugs in the country glad you got the Llama Marcus as the Mongolian snapping turtle may get lost in the pond seeing we are now invited to Dannys home :)

I'm just waiting on swmbo's cousin to decide, but think we may end up down Phillip Island, Wilsons Prom or West Gippsland way.
so we decided the coast was going to be all too busy and didn't want the hassle of the long weekend traffic. Going to head out tomorrow and see if we can find a spot somewhere nearby. Location tbc
Tonight's dinner and campfire in the making.

I've heard you've got lots of history and great cultural places.
Surely that's a reason to visit?

I hope they're not LOST!
