Update from Moppie, who I believe is having troubles trying to post at the moment.

I think we should meet at 6:15 outside the dry storage warehouse on westhaven drive.
Turn into westhaven drive, then left and park imediatly on the right.
Ill be in the big ugly toyota Granvia van.


It's a shame you can't get a big sticker and put it on the side :) then everyone can see who you are

For the people who are joining the bus... Where are you going to park for the day?

I think I'm travelling with Joeseph, who will be picking me up from my house.

Cheap taxi service. ;)

/me changes name to Moppie:

I have lots of space in the van, so if you and Joesph want a ride for the rest of the day your quite welcome, we can meet at westhaven, shoot the sunrise, then go leave Joes car somewhere safe.
I can then drop you both off at the end of the day.


He also gave me his contact details, so if you need them. I have them.

You folks have fun, and get some pictures! I'm looking forward to seeing some great shots from the GKPS (Great Kiwi POTN Shoot) crew.

Watch out for the blue kangaroos.

Sounds good to me! I can leave the car at work (Wyndham St) - could also acomodate another couple of cars at work if anyone else wants to leave theirs for the day, see how things pan out.

That would be one way to ruin a beautiful country. The mere thought is appalling.

That's my house for Joeseph. In case you get lost.

So what time down at Westhaven? I'll be there about 6.00, I drive a black Mazda Lantis. Are we meeting by the old Westend Rowing Club building, it was where the Police were based during the Americas Cup, or it there another spot.

Looking forward to meeting you guys and a having great days shooting.

Cheers

Rob
