Just a heads up if anyone is interested; theres a heck of alot of Waterski'ers out on the Pat all week and today and tommorow (Sat & Sun) there is the 44th Australian Sprint Car Championships out at Summer Road, Bolivar.

Might be at the Patawolonga but Bolivar seems a bit...far.

Ronza - thank you for sharing this information.

I am hopefully heading for the new 'Immersion' area at the Adelaide Zoo @ 9:30 am tomorrow morning for 1-1.5 hours. Then going back on the 25 April. Just can not get enough of the Lions & Tigers etc :)

What time are you guys going to the zoo? I am coming back from the Mount on that day and might be able to catch up, although I'll have the ruggies with me. Not sure what time I'll be in town though either.

Marvin - at a guess somewhere between 10:30-11:00am. The Lions go off the boil early afternoon (sleep mode). No problem with the ruggies.
Please keep in touch.
