Welcome Peter. I think there will be a couple of us there at Barwon Heads. It can be hard to get a spot as it is very seasonal where the same families come back each year. We have decided this year to leave Wed' morning this year as we felt we missed the fun of the cup because we were packing to leave. Kids will still make school, just miss a couple hours.

Hi Geoff
I think we booked to go there last year to the Barwon Heads caravan park, but there was a big storm coming that way and it was meant to rain the whole week end, so we cancelled. Bit of a shame really. It looked like a nice place to stay.

the missus is a teacher and doesn't get the monday off.
They frown on the students not turning up on the Monday, but really frown on the teachers skipping it :)

Hi Peter, we are also heading to Halls Gap, but are staying at The Big 4 Parkgate Resort. Friends of our booked a cabin for Melb Cup a few months ago, and we decided to joing them. Rang Friday to book a site and got the very last site, non powered.

We are heading off to Bright CP for the 2nd year running. Great spot and hopefully OktoberFest is on again. Just got back from an 11 week trip up north and down the west coast. If you haven't done it, get onto it if you can. Awesome! Some pics and blog at : riceys.wordpress.com

Off to Merimbula NSW for 5 nights via Lakes Entrance on the way for a night and on the way home for a night. We're staying at Big4 Whiters Holiday Village in Lakes on the way to Big4 Tween Waters Resort in Merimbula and the Eastern Beach Holiday Park in Lakes in the way home. Getting out of Victoria for Cup weekend for the first time in a long time, can't wait!
Tween Waters is nice. It's in a great location whereby you don't have to use your car to get into town and it has a nice beach behind it. Enjoy!!
