That's wonderful! Such a beautiful DZ staffed and frequented by some of the most friendly folks I've come across in this sport. If only Linda and I could be there for it ...

Bob

PS - Hi Saskia! Say hello for me to Henny, Kees, John, Erik ("Ear"), and the CF couple whose names I've unfortunately forgotten!

Hey Bob
Will do, haven't seen Erik "Ear" in a while though, maybe he's hibernating or something

You mean Tom and Caren (CaTo) I think

[thread creep disclaimer]

Yes, indeed it is. My sincere congratulations to all! I soooo wanted to be on that load , but at least I got to see it up close and personal.

Bob

PS - I made the supreme mistake of confusing a Dutch woman as being of German nationality ... in Arnhem of all places! Fortunately, she didn't take offense to my mistake; she just kindly but firmly pointed it out to me. Sometimes one learns lifes lessons the hard way ...

Accommodations? Would you recommend staying in Apeldoorn? Ideally, I'm likely looking for a mid-range hotel with restaurant and pub facility.

Any suggestions? (Unfortunately I don't speak/read Dutch and most of the local tourism information websites aren't translated)

Dank u zeer

John

(we can take this private if you'd prefer)

It's a package deal, the organization is still working on it but the hotel is included apparently.

Here's the bid we made.

This will already answer many questions. Additional information will follow in bulletin 1 and at the website (url to be announced soon).

water of course (at all levels :-)

Ah, yes. Bottled water in Europe. Spa reg (with gas, carbonated); Spa blue (without gas, non-carbonated). I like the simplicity, unlike the 5000+ different kinds of bottled water we have to choose from here. Alchohol? There I there I don't mind having a few more choices.

Hi Caren! Say hello to Tom for me.

PS - I think when I learn another language, it will be Dutch. I feel ignorant not knowing the local language where I visit. Finnish? Even some of the Finns I've spoke with said English was easier.
