Have we decided which weekend?
When first (because of the wheather), I volonteer to organize 2-3 days Amsterdam and surroundings. Some of you know what that means :)

Well, although it looks like the poll is stuck at 3 - 3 for which weekend, the appointed Grand Puhba (Barley, wherever he may be), seems to favor opening weekend.

I would hope that the Grand Puhba begin to assume the aforementioned duties associated with this grand honor.

I am the grand and glorious Grand Puhba.

Sayeth that we goeth to 2 Klosters in one trip. Let it be good.

However, remember thy roots. Have we gone to Bertchesgarten and the holy Salt Mines lately?

Let us not hasten to decision, but revel in the options that abound.

So sayeth the Puhba.

I would appreciate if we went openning weekend. save pain from the worldy beings with which I must coexist.

Chugger said...

This shows why BarleyMan has finally reached the pinnacle with his assumption of Grand Puhba duties. Showing the error of our ways is humbling, and offering to continue dialog is worldly. How could wew forget another excursion to the Holy Salt Mines; aka The Fatherland Down-under !

All hail the Grand Puhba! Ein Prosit !

Barbus said...

Sounds like a plan ! Barbus and Schlumberger Lady will join.

Einfahrt said...

We've never done Andechs in the evening. If I recall, the Eagle's Nest / Salt Mine thing is most of a day when adding in transport time. (Maybe a chartered bus would reduce travel time?)

We could do Berchtesgarden Saturday, then Andechs in the evening. Full day, but might work.

I don't plan on doing any shopping, so my time is available.

"I don't plan on doing any shopping..."

WHAT ! ! ! NO SHOPPING ! ! !

You blaspheme ! ! !

Einfahrt said...

Oh S..t I mean . . . darn

Chugger said...

I believe a ruling by the Grand Puhba is in order. Whilst shopping can be claimed as a "god given right", there is no known article of confederation, constitutional amendment, or general understanding of the parties that require "shopping participation". Shopping can occur while other aforementioned nector consumption continues.

By the way Schlumberger Lady..... your little posting picture really makes you look hot and sexy ! !

OK parade and Andechs on Saturday

Shopping at the little gift shop at Andechs while others "rest" at table (with brats and beer)

Hopefully they would join you, but my current understanding is as follows:

Jane...........Not attending
Candy..........Not attending
Debbie.........Not attending
Bonnie.........Unknown
Joyce..........Not attending

As Einfahrt said..... "darn".

PrivateHops said...

I vote for no shopping. As neophyte, I feel that shopping takes away from my deflowering.

BarleyMan said...

I grow weary of this reparte.

Consorting with the money changers has its roots early on, however it must not deter us from the prime directive.

privatehops, you show great wisdom for one so young. Perhaps there is hope for you.

We will have a dearth of the female species on this voyage, but we have travelled thusly in the past and lived.

So sayeth the Puhba.
