VT-meeting April 6, 2007 - Part 1

by pieter_jan_v - last update: Aug 19, 2007

BE PATIENT

We komen iets later!
't Arendnest - Nederlands Biercafé

The Attendees

After the VT-meeting winterstop (?!) this meeting became the first 2007 one I attended. We had a happy bunch of 10 people:

Organizer martin_nl and his buddy Harm23

Visitors from abroad:
ThereseHeather aka shutterlust
LrSorr and Chris_Z from the UK

and the "locals":
Igraine
dila
ATLC
pieter_jan_v and Swanèt
martin_nl

Arriving late

As usual Swanèt and I had explored the city first and at the same time we hunted for records (and it was a good hunt!).

We were the first ones to arrive at the meeting point: Het Nederlands Biercafé 't Arendnest at the herengracht 90.

This café offers a great selection of local Dutch beers and serves some nice bar food as well.
dila

First ones first

Igraine and dila arrived a little later and we had some cathing up to do.

I save you all the gossip.
Harm23 and ThereseHeather

Potential members

Now I look back at this meeting, we had 3 potential members visiting.

Well, Harm23 already may be a member, but he forgot all about it.

(He secretly is spying on us from September 07, 2004 haha)
Can you see it?

Back at VT

After martin_nl, Harm23 and ThereseHaeather arrived, ATLC completed the crowd. She really had a VT winterstop, but is back in full swing.

martin_nl, Harm and ThereseHaeather visited the tulip fields and the Dutch coast earlier that day.
LrSorr

Last minute entry

LrSorr and Chris popped in at the very last minute. Well, one more drink and off we went to our dinner location.
ThereseHeather

TH

I have to talk with TH's mother.

She didn't bring my picture back (I mean the one that's travelling the USA ever since the last Baltoberfest) and was that really the BIG hug Hansi promised (haha)?

Goto Part 2: so much to see in Amsterdam.
