After parking early on Thursday morning, and after a cup of coffee and getting things ship shape in Rafe, I went for a bit of a wander around the parking areas.

It’s amazing just people watching and taking piccies as I went of things happening.
The parking team did an amazing job getting lines straight and getting everyone in safely.
Talking to some of them later, it’s amazing to hear that there were a few whines from visitors not being able to park right next to their friends etc.
The blurb did say, “if you want to be next to friends or family, come in together”. It’s hard work for the volunteer parkers getting everyone in safely, let alone stop queues unnecessarily.
As I say, the Volunteer parkers did an amazing job well done yet again…!!
Check out the images of my walk about the parking area. I can’t get over the number of old friends I bumped into while walking around. Great fun.

I’m not sure there were as many people as previous shows, but it was a fun place to be and lots to see.

An amazing number of campers and others. You guys maybe set an international record. Great fun to see so many old friends of the road all over the years
