Attended my first ever VW spectacular this year and it was awesome! Most people seemed to be liking the new venue at Macksville and there was a great vibe at the showgrounds. Emergency surgery two days before departing home wasn't the ideal start to the trip. A twisted nut had me on the operating table in absolute agony. Anyway, the surgeons and docs had me cut open and all stitched up in a morning and I was in recovery over night. This made the first 5-6 days of the trip a struggle but felt a little better each day.
For those that saw me at the showgrounds on Thursday arvo hobbling around like someone had stolen my horse, above is the reason why.
Met so many great people and it was also great to catch up with old friends as well.
Camera battery went flat more then once and filled two SD cards. So here we go with the pics...there will be more to come over the next few days.
Cheers,
Rusty
