Vallåkra - Sweden 16th-17th August 2008

Cecilie240 · 07-03-2008, 06:01 PM

Hey!

Last year me and DaButcher went to Vallåkra in Sweden for the car show. We didn't actually see any of the show, because I had to be back for school, BUT: I had a BLAST with the TurboBrickers I met there! Really nice and cool people, and I hope maybe others wanna join this year! We had even some Americans last year, perhaps someone this year too?

This year Vallåkra Treffen will be held
16th - 17th of August in Vallåkra, Sweden

Winner of the 2007 show:

Here's the link to their webpage (SWEDISH ONLY)

Those multi continent flights will kill yah! It was soo hard to stay awake. It was pitch black with nothing to look at. If i had a turn @ the wheel it would of been great. Maybe I come back in 2020 when Olav gets his 242 running

Yes, I would probably say it's best to fly to Copenhagen (which, btw, is IN Denmark;)). But you need transportation to Vallåkra tho. We're maybe thinking of taking the boat to Denmark and driving through Denmark to Sweden. So, could pick up someone on the way, maybe?

CHESH740R · 07-04-2008, 06:08 PM

Damm that weekend happens to fall on my long weekend off work, and going from past experience its only a 12hour drive to get there.

However me and a friend have allready decided to go drinking that day in London.

Unless i convince him to go for a few beers at the english pub....... near a nice hotel I know.

BS. If the US government can get me a passport in a week without paying extra for rush. I think you can get yours renewed.
Wait, based on british post speeds, maybe not.

TheJoyOfSix · 07-06-2008, 02:35 PM

I fast-tracked my passport and it arrived in 2 weeks.
