Crisis averted, I feel much better than Thursday. I don't want to miss out on this opportunity, so I'll come to Kassenhaus with sun screen and UWA's and I'll see how the day goes.

For those who will join:
- don't forget to take a UWA with you (interiors, cramped spaces, unusual structures)
- weather will be sunny: don't forget the sunscreen! Although there is a lot of water at the location, mosquitos are not really a problem. Drinking water is free (at the cafeteria), as is coffee and tea (and more).

See you soon!


Talking about UWAs, I have a spare Voigtlander 10mm FF E-mount. Do you have one, Harald? If not, I can bring it if you want to try it.

I was quite excited to join this DM, but I'm very sorry to say that my current state of mind does not allow me to participate. I hope you have fun.

Let's hope the predictions will be on the spot. Friday, Sunday and Monday should then be free of rain (sunny, partly cloudy) - I have checked a couple of weather websites as well.

So we will meet Sunday at the Kassenhaus at 10:00 h (and we will wait for the latecomers). No guided tour, we will be all self-guided.

The weather still looks good for sunday, temperatures between 20 and 24 degrees in the day and mostly sunny.

Saturday there seem to be some thunderstorms passing through the area but hopefully that will stay as forecasted and not move to sunday.

Have good holidays gentlemen, they will likely be worthy alternatives with photo and other opportunities.

I move even slower than Pieter so a guided tour is not my cup of tea either.
I think the philosophy of Hombroich is giving little or no information and letting you explore the place by walking around, guided by your own perception. I think that's ideal!

10:00 Kassenhaus it is. I'll be visiting my sister in law in Limburg on Saturday, leaving me a 50 minute drive on Sunday.

Not a huge fan of guided tours, but I'll go with the flow.
