May be worth a look if you have no plans for Easter Sunday.

It's not just for vans  - street machines, utes, hot rods & classics are also welcome

Thanks for rubbing it in Bruce :lol:.

I was hoping to get down there but I wasn't able to get the time off work (pissed right off), I will have to aim for next years Nationals.

If anyone ends up going take lots of pics.

If it's any consolation Mort, I won't be able to attend the event myself

 

Instead, I'll be stuck on a cruise ship drinking cocktails while heading fo Airlie Beach, Yorkey's Knob, Port Douglas & Willis Island.

If your going to Yorkeys Knob, it sounds like a fairly large boat then? To big to dock in the inlet. So you will need to jump on board small tenders and be brought into Yorkeys. Then it's a 20min bus ride into Cairns.

Pretty shitty setup all because the greenies don't want the inlet dredged.

We're on the Pacific Dawn Brad & I believe we have to use the tenders at all 3 ports.

Can you recommend any must see attractions up your way apart from Kuranda Skyrail?

Be just my luck it'll be over the other side of the country next year.

Enjoy your cruise Bruce, the wife and I took the kids (4 of) on 2 cruises, the Pacific Sun and Pacific Sky and had a ball.

Thanks Mort, we took our boys on "the Dawn" back in August & had an awesome time. This cruise our boys are staying at home & we're travelling with friends - only 1 more sleep
