Mr. Saprissa:

When we have meet at the Rosebwol, people show up. Those folks that show up, normally don't even post on the board or, if they already voted they are going to a place, they just go (most people are not too much into vote/revote, etc).

I think the meet will be a good one!

Cheers!

Wiedermann

Great photos Buellwinkle!!! FWIW, the southern most Salt Creek Parking area off of PCH and Selva (the locals beach, not the public one next to the Ritz) is known as "Dana Strands."

October 23rd - 4PM

OK,
It seems like Parking Lot "K" is a good spot for the October 23rd (Saturday) Mercedes-Benz Meet at the Rose Bowl. 4 PM.

Charter Bus & Limousine Parking area on the South-West side of the Stadium. (See Map below)

I checked the Rose Bowl Events Calendar, and there are NO events scheduled for the 23rd. Weekend weather seems like it's going to cooperate with temps in the low 70's. Rain should all be gone by Thursday. Bring your cameras !

Please get the word out on other forums and threads about this MB meet open up to all years & models of Mercedes-Benz, AMG, Smart, & Maybach's.
A, B, C, E, G, M, S (heck, if you've got an UNIMOG, bring it too !) Old school Benzo's, diesels, and classics are all welcome !

If anyone wants to form up caravans at different locations (San Diego, Orange County, Riverside, San Fernando Valley, West LA / South Bay, or Ventura County) make arrangements now, so everyone can show up at the Rose Bowl by 4PM !!

After we all drool and take pictures of all the cars, anyone game to do a low-speed cruise through OLD TOWN PASADENA ??? Then a fast-speed return to the Rose Bowl ??? And of course, dinner & dancing to be determined at a yet undisclosed after-party location ???

The map of the parking lots show plenty to choose from.
