Anyone going to Wacken by way of Amsterdam?

[Solskinn Av Natten]

Is anyone here planning to travel to Wacken via Amsterdam? I can't find a direct flight (for a reasonable price) from Toronto to Hamburg. So instead, I think I'll arrive in Amsterdam on August 2nd or 3rd, stay overnight, then take a train to Hamburg. Maybe I'll stay overnight in Hamburg one night (say, the 3rd) so I can visit the metal bars

If anyone is planning to be in Amsterdam, let me know! We could maybe go for a drink or travel together the following day

My cousin and I are staying in Amsterdam for a few days before we head to Hamburg. We'll take a train on the 3rd and head up north for one night before Wacken.

We're also Canadian.

I live just outside amsterdam, but by that time I'm already at wacken.
else I would definately have liked to travel together.

I can recommend you to book early.
The earlier you book, the cheaper the train is

True.

(though I'm thinking a bit now...)

Don't! Thinking will hurt your head

So what are you pondering about?

Zij is in 't FC aangemeld. Ik kan proberen die ook mee te nemen. Maar... met bagage voor 4 wordt 't wel wat krap in de kofferbak. (en 5 dus nog meer)
Ondanks dat wij geen tent in de auto hebben, maar achter de auto.

Tent is nog niet eens het lastigste om mee te nemen (nou ja, die van mij is wat lastiger)
Maar grote tassen/zware koffers wel

Daarom.
Plus koelkast. Die vreet ruimte! (en we zijn mat 3, vanaf Neerpelt)

Cool! More Canadians
Sounds like we're travelling on different days, though.
Now I'm thinking that maybe I should go one day earlier. However, this would mean asking for 1 more day holiday from work. I haven't booked my flights yet, so it's possible. Then I could leave Toronto on the 1st, arrive in Amsterdam on the 2nd, and maybe get to Hamburg earlier, too.
Hmmm...

You do? I didn't know that! For some reason, I thought you lived in the area of Gelderland. Silly me

When are you going?

Thank you
But I think I'll be buying a Eurail pass, because with a couple of train trips it's a much better deal (3 countries, 5 days of travel.) And I'm planning to stay in NL until the 21st, so because I know people / have family in Hoorn, Enkhuizen, Dronten, Amsterdam, Utrecht, Delft, Arnhem and Eindhoven... that's a lot of train travel opportunities

Wat is een FC? Oh... forumcamp. Duhh

Dat is echt leuk van je om te aanbieden! Maar kom je niet uit België? Dat is erg ver om te rijden!
