Maymeeting 2008

Friday
On Friday night we’ve arrived at Barchem the Netherlands, on the camping or hotel.
We’ve gathered for a drink in a shed on the camping place. It was only a fifteen-minutes-walk back to the hotel, so having a couple off beers was for those who didn’t stay on the camping no problem.
Saturday
Saturday morning, after the breakfast, more and more enthusiasts arrived on the field, next to the camping. What also arrived, was more and more rain… As the 15 to 20 cars have arrived, it was to time to start a, nice but rainy, tour through the beautiful scenery of the Achterhoek-area. We were glad we’ve had arranged a nice indoor-buffet, and no “camping BBQ” as in previous years. Before dinner it was time to present who had won the treasurehunt. And like the last years, about the same people were best… @@lijstje opnemen@@
Sunday
After a late breakfast on Sunday morning, we’ve joined a local activity called 'klootschieten'. We walk, in several groups, a certain distance while throwing a ball (the 'kloot') forward. The team that arrives at the finish with the fewest throws has won! It was a nice way to chat with others and enjoy a day out in the forest. Luckily it was a bit more sunny than yesterday. After this activity we’ve split up, packed our things, and went home…
We’re looking forward to Maymeeting 2009: May 15, 16 and 17 (put it in your agendas!)
