Time for another cruise

Wanna plan another cruise.  Need some help!

My idea is to do a Saturday thing (and soon) - All day jobbie and sleep out that night.

But wanna tie in some interesting stops along the way (photo shoot opportunity, Car joint, Ocean views, lunch, maybe dinner (pea ham soup at Alfreds Guildford))

Anyone up for it? Got any great ideas - Looking for something different always end up at Freo/Kings Park.

I will keep thinking too
Brookie

Hope to have a cruise sometime in next few weeks IF the Toodyay Race Club approval come through.
Perhaps overnight/coffeemeet and inspection of facilities at Club so some ideas can be put together.

Guilderton/Moore River about 120k from Perth has nice river beach as well as ocean- very neat Caravan Park with barbecue area etc.
Ideal for kids and big kids with Kombis.

This is another interesting location and not far from metro area.
Australia's only monastic town- great pub and outstanding period buildings.

No dogs at Moore River on website, but I think you could ask a few years ago, and they would OK.

Brookie what about this idea of going to Toodyay for the a trial run

Did you have an over nighter in mind for that - as tis could be another option
Phat bus

What about Dwellingup or Beverley. Bit in the middle of no where but a nice drive via brookton Hwy or Mandurah & Pinjara etc.

Anyway, I'm interested and a possiblity at this stage.

I'll check with Toodyay Race Club and see if 3rd May  weekend is OK -probably Monday now.

Ok. Who fancies Kipping the night in Toodyay on Saturday 3rd May.

We are able to visit Race course the next day, and I understand not all are are gonna be up for that and thats cool.  But by having a night there it kills two birds with one stone - as the saying goes!

Who's interested Question   The last night away in York was great Wink

Plenty of time after for coffee or whatever in town.

ok see you there, hopefully a few more might be there too.
Brookie

Beautiful day today in Toodyay area 23.5ºC and tomorrow clear, fine and 24ºc.

Don't forget you don't need to be driving a Kombi to come-not even a VW- but if you would just like to see the proposed venue you are welcome.
Our Kombi is months off finishing and we will be driving nearly normal cars.

Should be great day- see you at Racecourse 10.30am if not downtown.

It's a lovely day, have a great time, we are stuck at soccer, one at quinns, one at northbeach Sad
