We know this is early, but due to popular demand (and hotel reservations~), the next date was set.
CITY/REGION: Schiermonnikoog, the Netherlands
MEETUP PLACE: Hotel van der Werff, Reeweg 2, 9166 PX Schiermonnikoog
DATE: 6 May 2023
TIME: 11.00
MEETUP PLAN:
Planning
We meet up at 11 AM at Hotel van der Werff. In front of the hotel is a small music tent called ‘Het Beukenootje’ where we will get together.
We stroll through the streets of the small village and buy some postcards before we go to the Berkenplas at 1 o’clock where we will have lunch and can write the postcards.
In the evening, we can see if we can dine somewhere together for the people who would like to do that.
Postcards
The price is still unknown, I wasn’t fully happy with the quality of the last cards I had for a meeting, so I have to find another place so the price may be different as well.
Bicycles
The lunchroom is best reached by bike, and it might be nice to go over the island after lunch and write for the people who want to. It is a nice island, but it is mainly made for bikes.
In case you are not able to walk or cycle long, there are several options on the island to join for the meeting as well!
There is a tandem bike specially made for people who are disabled. If you need this, tell me and I’ll make sure it is reserved for the date.
Another option is a scoot mobile which can be rented at Soepboer. Also, make sure to be on time to make a reservation for it.
There are also 2 taxi services on the island in case you can’t walk or be on a bicycle at all.
Who’s going to come? (I’ll put a max at 25 (currently we are on 28/25))
