Dear friends,
Just returned from a well organised Amphib 2015.
A great location, just a few kilometers from the centre of Amsterdam and such a great place.
Like camping on the beach, a complete area only for us Amphib participants of Amphib 2015.
The organisers had the unpleasant job to disapoint a lot of interested people because the totall of
vehicles wat limited to 65.

In fact this became 74, and if there was no limit, it would have been +/- 150! crazy
The young new organisator crew made it a great program and well organise event.
We started with a lot of info, souveniers, and wonderfull info guide / book with all details you like to know.
For all the days there were precise detailed routes for on land and on the water.
Electricity,showers, toilets, bread, festival tent and enough beers! joker
Except one half day the weather couldn't have been beter.

Bob,
As always, your pictures and commentary are excellent. A big thank you. Someday I will come over and visit during one of these events. It looks like so much fun I wish we had something in the U.S. that was comparable. Alas, I think we are too spread out to try and attempt here.
Again a big thanks for the posting,
Donovan.
