I organise a Postcrossing Meetup today on Macleay Island Waters Edge Restaurant
that is situated at the Bowls Club.
We had a great time. 11 in all attended, a great turn out to say the least.
They all arrived by ferry, well except 2 who had trouble finding parking on the mainland and missed the designated 10.30 ferry that the others caught, no hard feelings they managed to catch the island's SMBI Little Bus. The courtesy bus from the Bowls Club picked everyone up and delivered them to the restaurant.
It started at 11am and ended 3 hours later. Everyone enjoyed their meals, at least I think so as no one complained.
We signed 1070 postcards, kudos to those that didn't have stamps and had to write on every card. Here are some wonderful exercises for your fingers for the next meetup.
Our story will be featured in the Friendly Bay Islander June Edition
Table all set up ready to go
Busy, busy, busy writing and stamping their Postcrossing ID's onto postcards
From left to right:

Isn't she absolute gorgeous? Sumayah is holding her troll which she brought on the trip
My lunch was prawns in caesar salad
My favourite dessert Creme Brulee
I take it these are postcards. Do you then mail them out? It looks like a great group and a fun activity.
