Another Grand Annual Sprint Car Classic Weekend in Warrnambool with both my brothers & their families, my Dad and Christie & Billie

I went down a couple of days earlier with the kids while Michael was working. We stopped in and grabbed subway for lunch before heading to the caravan park to set up

After set up the first stop was of course the pool

and then baby Billie arrived for her first Classic Weekend

Most of the week was spent hanging around the caravan park having fun with cousins and swimming every day in the pool 

On Thursday afternoon we went for a bike ride into town to get an ice creams 

 

Friday was the start of the Classic. We all went to racing on the first night

Saturday was a very warm one so we went to the Flying Horse for lunch in the cool 

and then back for another swim before racing.

On the Saturday night it was Mason & I that went racing and Aunty Christie and Billie joined us for Billies first Speedway meet.

On Sunday Lynda & Ronnie came to visit us before we headed back to the track for the last night of racing

It was another fun week away with everyone and we cant wait for next year but it was our last year at Tasman Holiday Park as the price just keeps increasing a lot every year so next year we have booked Port Fairy Holiday Park!

Same, same but different cuties!

Summer 2025/2026 - Warrnambool

 Shipwreck Bay Holiday Park

3rd January - 10th January 2025

Section 19, site 49

The 9th Year in a row and as always I was slack with taking photos. 

This year Mason wanted to try out the swag for the first time

I actually had to go home to work the day we arrived in Warrnambool and didn't come back until lunch time on the 5th.

we went to the Warrnambool Grey Hound seaside festival

   

The entertainment this night wasn't as good as it has been on previous years but it was still fun.

The next day was the boys annual golf day, we took the kids to the shops in the morning and then swimming in the pool at the caravan park across the road in the afternoon

Wednesday was nice and warm so we spent some time at the beach and the boys went fishing the the evening.

When the boys were fishing we went in search of ice cream but everything was already closed so a slushy was the best we could do

Thursday we went over to Lake pertobe playground and played some cricket and had a play on the park.

We went to the carnival in the evening 

On Friday everyone else headed home, the weather was 44 in Bannockburn and still pretty warm in Warrnambool but no where near as bad. We were due to go home on Saturday morning but with very strong winds forecast for the Saturday we decided to pack up on Friday, stay the day and drive home that night.

We went to the beach for our annual name photos

The kids walked down and got some slushy's while we were packing up 

our friends that we stayed with in Port Fairy came into Warrnambool & we went to the summer market and had a look around and some dinner. They headed to the carnival and we headed home.

The drive home was quite scary with lots of lightening and with the heatwave unfortunately Victoria was experiencing quite a few large fire and a lot of smaller ones all over the state. We were watching the emergency app quite closely to make sure we could still travel home the way we planned as we were close to some of the fires and could see the flames at one point.

We arrived home at around 10:30pm and just like that another summer holiday was over
