50 Pagodas for the 50th Birthday - Australia

[Garry]

A photo of the 58 Pagodas and their owners in front of our Parliament House Canberra Australia to celebrate 50 years.

And If you look very carefully, I am standing in front with the Birthday card signed by all the owners that I will send to Peter Van Es.

Just a little pressure on the USA to match and beat the numbers.

Garry,

WHAT A PICTURE!!!!
This shows not only pride and joy of such a gathering, but it is the best testimony of your achievement that was this event and celebration.

I don't want it to sound too ceremonial and pompous, but I think that the few things you have already shown prove that you and the people that helped you had fantastic ideas now to enhance this unique experience,

Now you put the pressure on everyone who wants to celebrate the 50th anniversary in, as a certain Michael S. would put it, in "Pagoda style".
You certainly did it !

Congratulations and thanks for sharing with us…

Thanks Stan,

I have put some more photos on the events area on the Forum.

Will be putting some more over the next few days as some of the other Members present put some of their photos on the site.

And when I get it, and you get me the highest quality, highest resolution picture of this shot (cars and owners) I promise to have it blown up and to present it to the President of the German SL Group as a big Ozzie send-off, "in the nicest possible way" of course.

Australia, population 26 million, 58 Pagodas = 2.2 per million, USA 315 Million = 702 Pagodas?  Europe population? =

No pressure guys

Are we punching above our weight

We will enjoy that bottle of Chivas Regal Peter

That is so good Garry, fantastic turnout

Garry,
Wow what a great turnout you had.  I know everyone had a great time.  You are correct, we will have to match your event with the P-50, Williamsburg.  Any pointers you can give me, "dos and don'ts".

Garry,

Indeed, a fabulous shot, great, great, great!!

Great idea with the birthday card too.

OK, how LONG did it take to get everyone parked up properly? It was worth it however long it was but...

I have to admit I was quite curious too as to the "herding of the cats (oops sorry about the Jag reference)"

Was not paying attention so missed the opportunity to bring ours down. Was a beautiful weekend for it.

Australia, population 26 million, 58 Pagodas = 2.2 per million, USA 315 Million = 702 Pagodas?  Europe population? =

According to these numbers, we in the States have to have over 500 cars showing up at the Williamsburgh in September to be equal, but imagine having this many Pagodas in the streets of Williamsburgh.

That is a lot of pressure guys
