Hi all,
The "Where's this?" thread has been moved to the Whatever section. Because it does not directly relate to vintage caravans as such, that is a more appropriate spot for it.
This is not a criticism of anybody who has posted on the "Where's this?" thread, or of ATOG who set the ball rolling - simply a matter of finding the best place for the thread.
The thread has also been 'stickeyed' to the top of the Whatever section and won't be deleted.
I think we are waiting for Bobandjacqui to post a new photo? Or are we waiting for them to identify every caravan in the Mooloolaba caravan park back in the day as Roehm suggested, before we get a new pic? ;D ;D ;D
Don Ricardo for the moderators

Looks a bit like your back yard the morning after someone's 60th birthday party ;D ;D ;D OK Roehm and Bobandjacqui, You can't just get away with that, you know! "Looks a bit like your backyard..." Hmmmf The rules of the game are that you have to at least identify the general locality and the state! If you don't, how are the rest of us going to know where we want to spend our next holiday? Don Ricardo PS Sorry for stirring you in the last post Bobandjacqui. I forgot you might be away on a V V run (and taking great pics! ).

OK.... not a lot of towns near Eidsvold, and that's the trip I think we saw it............... how about Monto Mother was born 1897 Ray... hard times by to-days standards. Cobber.

Well done cobber. I reckon your mum would have had it rough out there in those days. Monto is now the "gateway" to the beautiful Cania Gorge.

Hi Cobber It's Werribee Open Range Zoo and you're reenacting the Lion King. When do you hold up the baby cub and show him to the assembled animals below? It's the circle of life... ;D P.S. I know it's not the zoo... Cheers Seeshell

Hi All, I realise that this is a late reply - but I have been away for the weekend. ;D ;D Re; Bob & Jacqui's backyard. Ray surely your comment of "Temp that morning 0 degrees" must be the understatement of the century - it felt more like minus 10 to me Oh yes that's right, you slept in a nice new warm modern van that night didn't you Luv Di

Wasn't the van, Di, but the hot water bottle I had in bed ;D ;D Boy, cobber, you look like you don't wanna hit 80, standing on that!!!! Taking a huge stab here, but it looks more like the country around el Questro station in the Kimberleys

Never been to El Questro Ray but it does look like that sort of country doesn't it.............. but it isn't Cobber.

Hi Seeshell and Cobber, Seeshell - It may have been the wrong answer, but it is a hilarious answer! I saw your post before I found the pic, and then laughed my head off when I saw the photo. ;D ;D ;D Cobber - Amazing the risk taking behaviour young males undertake in order to impress a young woman. But obviously it worked out well for you! Is the pic of somewhere in NSW? Don Ricardo ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D (still laughing at Seeshell's answer!)

OK Dave …. that's the short back and sides answer... but I'll accept it because I'll be leaving for Coledale soon It's actually the Kings Canyon Rim Walk.... have you done it Dave ? The highlight (and there were many) would have to be the “Garden of Eden”.... one of those spots where you wish you could be the only person there, although I have to say when we were there with about 50 others there was complete silence........ nobody spoke, we all just sat..or stood, and listened to the sounds of silence, worth the walk just to see that spot. Your turn to show another photo now..... and that answers your question Don R. Cobber.

G'day Dave, So many good spots on that walk aye ? If I get another chance to post a photo I'll show what I reckon is the best rock pool IN THE WORLD ! That photo of yours......is it Mt. Connor taken from a different angle to the usual one? Cobber.
