HESSICH OLDENDORF VINTAGE TREFFEN JULY 2009

[66VWDKP1]

HELLO ALL,
I’M NOT TOO GOOD AT THIS LOUNGE STUFF, SO IN THE MIDDLE OF MY STORY I HAD TO GO TO A MEETING AND WHEN I RETURNED MY NOTES WERE GONE.
SO HERE GOES AGAIN.
I WENT TO EUROPE LAST MONTH WITH MY WIFE AND SON TO VISIT ENGLAND SCOTLAND AND GO TO HESSICH OLDENDORF GERMANY FOR THE VINTAGE TREFFEN AND THEN ON TO CHIMAY BELGIUM FOR THE EBI#3.  WOW! WAS I BLOWN AWAY AT BOTH.  HAD NO IDEA WHAT TO EXPECT. HESSICH WAS SO COOL.  THE WHOLE TOWN WAS CLOSED TO ALL BUT FOOT TRAFFIC AND THEN 700 VW’S OF ALL KINDS CONVERGED ON THE LITTLE VILLAGE AND COVERED THE STREETS. IF YOU CAN IMAGINE A STREET OF SPLIT WINDOWS, A STREET OF OVALS A STREET OF KARMANS, BUSES, HEB’S, PORCHES, SCHWIMWAGENS AND VARIOUS ODDITIES NEVER SEEN BEFORE.  ESPECIALLY THE COUPE DE GRAS, INSIDE THE VILLAGE CHURCH WAS THE FIRST KNOW VW EVER MADE, ON DISPLAY. CHRISTIAN GRUNDMAN AND HIS TEAM DID A KILLER JOB ON THIS SHOW. WE HAD GREAT WEATHER, THE SWAP WAS OUT OF THE WORLD AND THE FINALE WAS THE BUFFET DINNER IN THE TOWN HALL FEEDING OVER 1000 PEOPLE. FANTASTIC.
