Camera for the photo opps and the views.

A Jaket is important as it gets really cold up in the cloweds!!!

RULES:

2. There is a designated cruise leader who will lead the way and set the correct pace for all cruise members.

3. Use the Buddy system; always make sure you can see the car behind you. This will give people behind you an indication on where to turn to make sure nobody gets lost.

Ok Guys & Girls,

I have the restaurant booked for 8pm.

Its a nice restaurant with a menu to cover everyones taste buds.

Average meals main cost around $20 dollars but the meals are large, I had the Roomba's hamburger special and was really good.

They have a great beer & wine selection as the other half of the restaurant is a cellar.

I also went for a cruise to the top of the mountain at around 8pm on Saturday night. It was pissing down with rain so as I was driving up the mountain I was driving through the clowds. It was a good drive but we will just have to take it easy.

Regards
