Will ofcourse be going again this year, but because of a Holiday to Florida a couple days after Spiel, we'll only be going 1 day to Spiel this year, on Thursday.

I've put a little thing together to get excited; a countdown clock!

The local airport has nonstop flights to Frankfurt. Right now they are only offering them through August, but if they do it in October, Essen is a possibility for me.

Ugh I'm going to Europe early August so I'll miss it $:-\$ . However, I do hope to be able to pick up some cheap mini expansions in Prague, which is near Germany.

It would be a wonderful experience !!
but this would have to win the national championship in Spain , something difficult but not impossible...

Yes, I definitely will be there for all 4 days, like I did last year. Vacation is booked, so does the apartment

jungleboy · « **Reply #10 on:** August 03, 2016, 05:37:00 AM »

I am likely to arrive only on the Friday night, so I won't attend the fair until Saturday (although I may be available for drinks and games on Friday night!).

Well, I'll be there on Sunday for sure (you know why).

But it is still unclear when I will arrive as Filosofia (French publisher of Carcassonne) is responsible for booking the accomodation. Hopefully I can already be in Essen on the Friday evening but it will be confirmed later.
