theme parks on the goldie...if you like that sort of thing. nice scenic cruises on the sunny coast, depending what the rest of the members think, perhaps a cruise especially for you with the all ford club of qld? are you bringing the au down? or flying in? aust zoo is pretty good but other then that, sunny coast doesnt have a lot to offer like goldie and brissie. BTW hastings street in Noosa is overated.....actually, Noosa is overated IMHO the first time i went there i was really disappointed... and everything is soooo overpriced!!!

This time round it might be a little hard to get something thrown together but there is a few options.

On Friday night (27th July) there is the option to meet a group of fordians at Harrys Diner on the Northside of Brisbane.

There is a B-Series cruise I believe on the 28th July (Saturday), and I am sure one of the B-crew wouldn't mind you tagging along in their car (check out their section, throw the idea up).

There is meant to be an AFF cruise but not sure if that is going ahead (haven't heard) and that is also on the 28th July.

In September / October when you are here we can get something happening for sure.

As already said, the 23rd is the All Ford Day @ Kedron (usually a great day), other than that we can put a cruise on or maybe a cruise + bbq.

Just remind us around that time

Other than that you could go see Underwater World, Australia Zoo, Seaworld etc, Southbank is usually an interesting place on Friday nights, or weekends.

Gold Coast will be around an hour to an hour & half drive from Northside.
Kedron is 20 minutes or so down from Caboolture.
Can't think of much else, must be the late time of night.. sorry
