Cars in the park #42



Today the annual Cars in the Park is being held at Zwartkops Racetrack. This event is hosted by The Pretoria Old Motor Club and is one of the biggest shows, if not the biggest, for car enthusiasts in South Africa .

We popped in at Cars in the Park this morning, well "popped in" is an understatement as we got stuck in the traffic jam of hundreds of visitors going in and again when leaving.
I never thought I'd enjoy going to a display of "old timer cars", as my little boys like to call them, and what I know about motor vehicles is seriously dodgy, but I must say it was a photographer's heaven! There were amazing shots just waiting to be taken in every direction.
Unfortunately we could not stay long as the children got more and more whiney...just too much walking for little legs.
Will definitely go back next year, a lot earlier in the day and without the children.

Oh, they are great! It's always nice walking through the history! Good time, indeed.

Yes Harry, I must say it was a fun Sunday outing (ignoring the whining kids)!
