hey girls! me, wayne and jen are looking at going to the pink pop festival in Holland : Landgraaf, 134 miles from Amsterdam, near the city of Heerlen and situated in the most South bound province of Limburg, Netherlands,
Just wondering if you know anything about it eg weather it is safe and how easy it is to get from Dortmund to Landgraaf? we can get cheap flights there and wayne says it looks close but of course it is crossing countries so don't know if it is cheap or if trains or buses go there at all? any advice gratefully received. thanks girls xxxx

Okay, it's about 150 km from Dortmund to Landgraaf. The cheapest train connection I could find was 145 Euros each! It takes about 3 1/2 hours to get there. Pretty expensive.

*edit* I've just seen that Cologne is much nearer to Landgraf than Dortmund is!! Keep looking for flights to Cologne/Dusseldorf! It's only 80 km.

Sorry for not being Coops, Eliza or Brigitte, but perhaps I can be of help as well. Once you get to Heerlen or Landgraaf there will be extra trains and buses, so that will not be a problem. You can even book a bus from a lot of other Dutch cities as well this year. See this link: www.eventtravel.nl/index_mainframe.php?rid=134&act=overzicht&PHPSESSID=d8b84a9f37336b4de8c0e8ce1859946fAbout the weather, that's always a surprise, they had sunny years and rainy ones. I don't know how many days you are planning to go? Because the weekend (3days)tickets have been sold out by now, you can only get single day tickets. About Dortmund no info from me, never been there As for myself, I'm not going this year: saving my money for the Q+pr tour... Hope this helps! And if you need help translating Dutch, just ask
