Stage 2: Western Europe
By Balkan Rally James
Exhausted though you will be after the festival, your first days
driving will require some willpower and stamina as you need to make
your way to Brugge. The good news is that we have sorted both your
ferry ticket and booked accomodation for the evening. Using the
handy maps provided in The Balkan Bible is easy and as soon as you
arrive in Brugge you can go into lock-down. That is except that
we're going to one of the oldest pubs in Brugge to sample an
extensive range of Belgian beers.
You'll need your rest though; The following day we hit Amsterdam where nothing is as expected. In this vein we have organised a mystery event, we don't even know what to expect. Doubtless this great city of vice will provide. Last year's evening in Amsterdam was so extreme that almost no one made it the next day to the beer hall crawl in Munich.
To sort this out we have added another destination; Heidelberg. Heidelberg sits on the neckar river in the rhine valley and is surrounded by forests. It is regarded as one of the most attractive towns in Germany and is said to have the best climate. We are staying in a campsite right on the river.
Munich, capital of Bavaria, the heart of Germany, full of history and with probably the finest brewing culture of any city in the world. Jakob, our man on the ground, will be donning his Lederhosen for the second time to lead you on a tour of this great city's world famous beerhalls, expect some live Bavarian music at the Hofbrauhaus plus visits to other less infamous but more traditional 'locals' beerhalls.
That concludes this brief teaser on Stage 2. Stand-by to find out what's in store for Stage 3: Slovenia and Croatia
