Hi Robert,

is this the event on Dec 7-9 or another one?

 

[Robert OB 33/48]

ehhhh nope, the same, why?

 

[vanlife4x4]

I wondered because I couldn't find any date in this topic.

 

[Robert OB 33/48]

Thanks, I changed that part.
Still work to do?

 

[vanlife4x4]

Yep, unfortunately..

 

[Robert OB 33/48]

Really too bad.

Hello folks,

Well at this moment we are a full house.
Which means that if we will have more attendees, we need to split up in two groups of drivers.
We have six Rigs now, and more will be a crowd. (That is the way we have to do it here.)

So these are the attendees;
1. Mathias and Stefanie, Jeep Wrangler. Overland Bound/Dragonriders Travel
2. Peter, the wandering man. Dragonriders Travel ( will join us on the campsite but goes hiking)
3. Fabi and Raven, Ford Ranger. Overland Bound
4. Robin, Mercedes G.
5. Stefan VWT5 4Motion. Dragonriders Travel
6. Sven, Landrover 110. Overland Bound
7. We, Robert and Frederique, Jeep Liberty. Overland Bound/Dragonriders Travel.

As you can see most attendees are OB members. @Michael and @Corrie you can see, even small OB is going places here in Europe.

Well it will be fun.

Hello folks,

Well, it is getting more and more an Overland Bound meeting.
Now, Pieter and Juliette from Paris are coming as well.
Wonderfull. Who knows, maybe we have to drive in two groups. Or at least in a way.

So now this is the
List of attendees;
1. Mathias and Stefanie, Jeep Wrangler. Overland Bound
2. Peter, the wandering man. Dragonriders Travel
3. Fabi and Raven, Ford Ranger. Overland Bound
4. Robin, Mercedes G.
5. Stefan with the VWT5 4Motion. Dragonriders Travel
6. Sven, Landrover 110. Overland Bound
7. Pieter and Juliette, Jeep Wrangler Rubicon, Overland Bound
8. We, Robert and Frederique, Jeep Liberty. OB/Dragonriders Travel.

And there are still two who are interested. So, who knows, maybe we really have to drive in two groups. That would be a first.
Then again, with good discipline, it should work.

We arrived on the Friday evening and set up camp.
As it was raining very much we asked if we could you an open barn for shelter. Which was ok and so we had a great time an no fear of getting wet.
On the Friday we made for the group on our Firepit/BBQ and cooking station a nice Tikka Masala with Naan Bread, Rayta, Mango Chutney and potatoes.
During Breakfast I took the time to make some pictures ot the camp and the Rigs

On the saturday we did a gvery nice trip in the north of the Netherland and with some muddy lanes it was good fun.

After a great day out on the tracks we did again some group cooking and grilling.
several kind of steaks, sausages and Saté Verlak (one of my specialities) wer made on the fire and bbq.
And we enjoyed the fire and all the strong stories and mild discusions.
It was just a great evening.

And for desert Frederique, my girfriend, made some nice and tasty australian (All4Adventure) scones. With jam and they were nice.

So a great evening concluded a great day.
At the end three of us talked way into the night.

The next morning after breaking down camp and a good breakfast we all parted and now is everybody home and all is fine.
We all became friends and for sure, we will see eachother again somewhere of the beaten path.

Thank you folks, I hope you can ad some pictures to this?

Hope to see you all soon on a new event.

Unfortunately it was already dark but I think you'll get a good idea of the mud we had to deal with
