Default Sydney Visit

Hi all,

I'll be stopping over at SYD for just 3 hours or so, wondering if anyone wants to catch up with me at the mound?

I'm coming in at 0615 from perf and leaving again for Cairns at 10:00 and hoping to spend a few hours spotting from the mound.

How long does it take to walk from Qantas terminal around to the mound? I did the trek a few years ago, but couldn't recall how long it took me.

Cheers

Carsten

Hi Carsten,

I won't be around, however it should take you about 20-30 mins to walk to the mound.(add longer if you via Krispy Kreme!!) My suggestion would be that you might be able to get a lift round to there with the long term car park bus!

And Yes, I expect to pick up a 6 pack on the way back

Ah cool.

On another note, EBW just arrived requiring Ground Power.. so APU must be playing up It was in earlier than expected, so hoping it wont be delayed too much.

Tim,

Where the ****'s Woolongong? Is it anywhere near Joondalooploop?

WX is ****e for anything other than sleeping, so that's exactly what I'll be doing after coming off my night shift...
