I don't want you guys to think I'm keeping secrets... first I procrastinated, then in the end I plain forgot... but how could anyone forget something like that?
The highlight of the year :)

This year our friends from Plettenberg had announced that they were coming.... so Mallorca Paule, Frank and Stedebeker really turned it up a notch here in Willingen...

and so they not only managed to get me to come out to the village, in my old age and after 1o years of festival participation.... but activity expert Mallorca-Paule also managed to have our 220lbs/100kg Frank lifted, mysteriously, by eight fingers...

After that we were off to the brewery (where I hadn't been previously either :) ), where Stede studied the brochures of the local sauna spas...

"The holes are about to fly out of the cheese.....", super music in the Sauerland... but everyone was in a good mood!

Stephan and Björn quickly found some new friends...

Our team jerseys were presented the next day...

for everybody's enjoyment!!

Björn was already happy at 7:30am....or still ?

Sam Baeten (Belgien)

and Mady the Danube Pirate stand at the starting line of the marathon.....
However, something must have happened to him on his travel through the dimensions....

maybe in the middle of the race at "Transsexual-Transsylvania" station....
But I can assure you that everybody was able to return safely!
Til next year,
Ron
