Group trip to Katoomba! (24/25 May)

Thu May 15, 2008, 10:52 PM
Quote of the moment: Albert Einstein - "Imagination is more important than knowledge."

Trip!

I have sent out notes to all those who have expressed interest. If you haven't got a note, please contact me!

Itinerary:
Travel:
Saturday 24th: 11:15am: train from Central to Katoomba
Sunday 25th: 3:25pm: train from Katoomba to Central (~5pm arrival at Central)
Cost: ~$12.20 for each single ticket in each direction (More info: [link])

Accomodation:
Saturday night: Katoomba YHA. Booking at least one mixed room (with more people expanding either sharing with other or a second room if we get enough of us) (More info: [link])

Food:
Sunday morning: after the sunrisers have taken their shots, everyone will join in having a cooked breakfast at the YHA! There will be a kitty collected so we can buy the breakfast ingrediants on the Sat.
Other meals: yet to be decided. Cheap option is to BYO lunches, get a few people to chip in for dinner to cook at the YHA. Or you can buy things.

Items:
Cold weather is cold, so bring cold climate items you can layer.
Wet weather is wet, so bring a raincoat.
Water bottle is handy.
Fun!

Activity:
Sunday: Get an all day Leura Trolley Bus ([link] - $15/day) ticket and go exploring.

Bugger! Will be out of town that weekend. As I will the one before (next) and the one after. And then it's packing to head off for a month...

I do hope you get good buy-in to this one, Ian. It certainly looks like a great concept and people should flock to it...

Hope you can make it!

And yes, they taste delicious when placed between the bacon and egg :P Nah, i'm using the other term for kitty = collection of money that everyone puts in to (to buy the breakfast food).
:icongimmyfood:
I'm in :D I know the area pretty well, so I could maybe devise a little options for us o do, with different things to see.

There is a trolley bus that does loops between katoomba and leura, which only costs about $15 unlimited hop-on hop-off rides for the whole day! Getting around should be easy that way!



p.s. Ooerr :P thanks for the feature :w00t:

KITES, HOW ABOUT KITES!!!? And hats. They're important to some.

I'm showing an interest.

Good stuff! *puts another mark up on the board*

Ooh, and that trolley is a good possibility for the Sunday. Thanks for the heads up!
:iconosirisunnefer:
Interested? Excellent!

Kites? Brilliant idea! Now we need to source kids light enough to tie to the kite and take photos with our cameras for us *plots*

And hats are left to the discretion of the potential wearer, although beanies come highly recommended for sunset/rise.
