Going to Europe for Christmas!

Hey all!

Thanks to some very kind and generous invites from across the pond, I will be spending Christmas holidays with Iris (Mumbling), Malte, Jason (Littlefoot1616) and Gustav (Lillefot)!

I'm leaving my home on Dec. 14th and will be arriving in Amsterdam in the afternoon of the 15th (their local time). Iris and her family were kind enough to pick me up from the airport and let me stay with them.

Iris and I will be meeting up with Malte, Jason and Gus for a few days from the 19th to the 22nd or so and I can only imagine the awesomeness that will follow.

Iris sounds like she has a few places she'd like to take me, including a seriously beautiful amusement park, Efteling in the Netherlands.

Ah, I'm sure this will be a Christmas like no other, and thanks to everyone for having me over! See ya next week, Iris! May our christmas be at least as awesome as our summer

I hope all of you have a great time.

Aye, I am very much looking forward to it and I am particularly glad that we are going to have a bit more time together than at first it looked

I'm planning on what we may be doing. We have several options to choose from (and the weather may play a role) but I guess we should definitely visit one of the many Christmas fairs around here (the one in Dortmund has the world's largest pile of Christmas trees pretending to be a single one

, the one in Bochum is fairly small, but they do have a carousel with a Littlefoot figure

, the one in Essen has a lot of interesting handcraft stands). Anyway it will be awesome

Awesome to hear that

Just sad that I can¥t be with you all this time, (I am away with my parents), but I still hope you all will have an awesome time. Have fun guys

Dude, I can't tell you how excited I am that this is happening!

My boss is still miffed with me for requesting time off at such a busy business trading stage of the year (which I'm going to have to make up for when I go back but hey...don't care! This is so worth any workload my boss slings my way

). I'll be touching down in Malte's fair country (for the second time within a year

) on the 19th and a ball we shall have undoubtedly!!

Lillefot · **Reply #12 on:** December 09, 2009, 04:30:37 PM

I'm sure looking forward to this! It's gonna be a blast!

I'm just gonna get through with this bloody final school week and after the ceremony on the 18th I'll be heading over the pond to Malte's! What a way to escape!

Sort of a busy X-Mas for me, as I'll be home again on the 22nd, remain home for 2 days and then I'm gonna go back to Germany again! I have so skiing to do with a certain Patrick (Nimrod).

First things first though!
Can't wait until next week!!!

Sounds cool, guys! Hope you all have a great time!

Mumbling · **Reply #14 on:** December 14, 2009, 04:56:50 PM

Tim's on his way here now. It'll be another 17 hours before he gets here, then again I know Tim often leaves like 2 hours before the plane leaves

Looking forward to see you soon!

Malte279 · **Reply #15 on:** December 14, 2009, 05:37:41 PM

And on Friday Gustave will be at my place. On Saturday Iris, Tim, and Jason will join us and this gang of FIVE meeting will go until December 22nd. Live is awesome!

They just wanted to do a real-life GOF staff meeting. They could've just saved the airfare and expenses done it on MSN on something with webcams.

Nah, really enjoy it guys!

Malte279 · **Reply #17 on:** December 14, 2009, 09:16:39 PM

You'll know the difference when you meet other GOF members in real life Adam.

Back and let me just say:
Okay, that was an absolute BLAST!

Glad you made it back safely Tim!

Now... Wouldn't it be time for some awesome pictures?
