I have a plan for making at least the 2nd half of Ringmeet, will finalize in late June

It's so convenient when all you have to do is stand up, walk for three or five minutes (depending on how well you can still walk in a straight line), and crash.
Have faith in the advice of the ones who've been there several times
MWF;n3549581 said:So we are confirmed as follows.
Me, HWF3.0 and Junior Menace. Junior is going to camp to get the full Ringmeet experience but the missus and I are confirmed as booked at the Faltin for the duration.
So it's basically one teenage person/one tent Thu-Mon, 2 adult attendees for the usual shenanigans plus not sure if we need to count the Winbiza as that will mostly be at Faltin or elsewhere but include that if required it's not a problem.
I know it's a pain but if you could please advise Im Wurstkessel that we have one vegan in our party and ask if they can accommodate that would be much appreciated. For the BBQ I'm sure I can locate the place Macguffin and I went to last year to get some veggie grill things and of course there will be salad and bread already.
CrzRsn;n3549586 said:I have faith. But I'm also looking out for my wallet. I guess I'll wait a few days before booking to see if I hear back.
MacGuffin;n3549599 said:Believe me, your wallet will be protected the most at Weihs or Faltin (don't know the prices at Wurstkessel). Two kilometers down the road, you pay twice as much.
MacGuffin;n3549599 said:Don't hang your hopes too high with Wurstkessel. The only vegetarian dish on their menu is a mixed salad. And I'm afraid they are the type of restaurant who'll tell you: "Vegan? Nah, you have to eat somewhere else for that:" But hey, maybe I'm wrong and they can put together some potatoes and vegetables without meat? I dunno. If I were you, I'd go there and ask beforehand on Friday or Saturday.
CrzRsn;n3549615 said:I’ll give it till Friday then.
Also any thoughts on relying on the train to get to/from the camp site (if I fly through FRA)? I know very little of the German train system. I do know that if this were France, I would not rely even dare to try to plan a time sensitive trip 2 months out by train with all their strikes.
Redliner;n3549682 said:The only problem we had was when arriving to the last leg of the trip, the train we were supposed to take was not listed in the upcoming arrivals. After a mild panic, a girl at the station explained us that the on-line system had different names for the lines "just because". :lol:
RdKetchup;n3549716 said:Well, I guess it is now official that I am going, I just bought 4 tickets to Germany
Now I am poor
Edit: And I have sent the money to Thomas. Now I just need to take care of the Hotel...
MWF;n3549677 said::lol: I kind of figured that might be the case. We use the HappyCow app when travelling to find suitable places for Michelle to eat and it gave precisely zero results anywhere in that area.
