Ooh, I'm looking forward to it. Let me get back to you on the best weekend. ;) We're planning a trip up to National Park so the kids can see snow. Once we've organised that, I'll have a better idea.

i just had an idea what about a meetup near the DCM bookfair on the weekend of September 3 - 4.
www.dcm.org.nz/events/bookfair.html

meetup first then those who want head off to the bokfair camera in hand.

It would mix a really interesting group photo project with a meetup. I can possiby get us access to upstairs and other good snapping spots if people were ok submitting an image for DCM to use to promote next years bookfair or be published in the next DCM newsletter.

The Arizona is pretty close - just across the road, and 1 small block.

Shed 5 is out of my price range i think.

:: Queen's warf is easy & expensive.
:: Across the road from the BNZ centre above tony's tyre service is only $3 a day .
:: street parking is free but often hard to nab.

Which is why Queen's Warf is so expensive, it's damm convinient and there is a psrk next to it :)
