Thanks useful information: 72
I'd love to do this - anyone from other areas welcome of course. My thoughts were a nice subrise on the beach - if Mother nature will play along - and breakfast at Currumbin Surf Club, where you can sit right out over the water.
Anyone up for it? I was thinking Sunday morning maybe second/third weekend in December? Those dates would be 8/9 or 15/16.
Poke your lens up here and we can change the title to the chosen date (with the help of a mod) once a date is decided on.

I'm leaning to the 15th, hope this suits everyone. I'm in Tassie now until 15th Nov but look forward to a meetup, as William said we are way overdue.
For a moment there Willy, I thought you may have started your own Bureau of Meteorology.
Shame someone's already pinched the name.

15th works for me..yayy!!! I will have finished my photo shoots by then. I can't wait to join in again. Been wayyyy to long.
Are you talking about meeting at the usual spot at Currumbin Beach Carpark?
It takes me about an hour to get there but its all worth it to see you all
What time is meetup...4.30 or 5am??
It's a week before I jump on a plane to Cambodia, so I think I can make it, provided I remember....
Maybe I should ride in this time. Saves getting jealous of all the motorcyclists on the way home.
Greg Bartle,
I have a Pentax and I'm not afraid to use it.

Yes, the usual spot. Sunrise at the moment is 0443, and it gets earlier until about 21 December, so it had better be 0415-0430. I will see if I can make a booking at the surf club at Currumbin Rock for us (William - do you have to be a member to book?).Originally Posted by 41jas

I was going to say about booking so we make sure we have seating. I might have a couple of more old members that might join us. I will ask them and see.

I have emailed them just now so should hear back this afternoon.
Odille , I've just seen your post RE: Booking , No you dont have to be member to book tables , Brekky starts at 7.30 am, Re the sunrise , lately I've been getting down for Sunrises @ around 4.20 am , Just to catch the colour that comes before the actual Sunrise , Good to see some of the old crew putting there hands up for this
To give you an Idea, Today 4.48am

Personally, I'd prefer to be there in the grey light well before. Bring a torch
and Caffine tablets.
For those of us who don't know where we're supposed to be going can we post a map?
Also, what are the tides doing about then, William, I'm expecting you to have an answer to that one!
