maaaan, ive just wasted a week off work doing nothing. and have NO petrol/ferry money. What a waste.
with a bit of booking in advance (like six months!) I could have saved up some traveling/beer money and booked the time off work.
No chance at 2.5 weeks though dude. :?

it was just tooo busy for me to take pictures :(

here's a link from a photographer to give a small impression, i do know of a photographer known to v3c, he took a lot of pics from all the cars and he will open a photobucket and then i'll copy the pics in this topic.

rain outside was poor so don't expect a lot of pics from outside.

oh yeah, on saturday there were 22000 visitors, sunday was a little bit less busy but still over 10000.
