    Blow @ Kingston SE 2017 1 2 3 4 7

    by Mez

    Hi All, I thought I would get the ball rolling with the 2017 Kingston SE trip. Last year was an amazing experience and we're up for it again in January. Now please do not let all the politics with the Blokarter put you off, the Clay Pan (Lake Nadzab) is plenty big to share as it covers an area of approx 600 hectares. I have been looking at the calendar and for me, its a later start for Term One of school, so arriving on Saturday 14th January, leaving on Saturday 28th January 2017 is a possibility for Doug and myself. Staying at Kingston Caravan Park, the same plot as before. Lets see what you are all thinking...... Mez

    Harden Kite Festival October 15 1 2

    by jhn.holgate

    11am to 5pm on October 15 is the Harden Kite Festival. Harden is situated in NSW about 100km North West of Canberra. There are lots of events, market stalls and competitions planned for the day. Website here: http://hardenkitefestival.org/ From the looks of Google maps it's a very open and large area to fly in and there appears to be more than enough room for some buggying or landboarding too. I could be talked into a road trip..... Google map link..... Google Map

    by jhn.holgate

    Good low tides around .08m for 4pm on Saturday and 5ish on Sunday are forecast for the weekend 20/21st. Suppose to be pretty hot inland on the Saturday which may make for afternoon sea breezes. Keep an eye on the wind forecast.
