III, I have been in touch with a friend of mine from the Typ 3 Liebhaber IG in Germany about this year's 'treffen', to be held near Wolfsburg in July. After having missed this event in the Netherlands and Altensteig, Germany the past two years, I have decided that I have to be at the meeting this time around. I have discussed this possibility with Richard Visser from The Hague, and I swed to get in touch with some other Europeans as well about it. >From what I have heard from Germany, this should be a pretty big happening. Hopefully some listees will be there as well. I am making plans to take my Square on a freighter from Helsinki to Travemunde (Baltic coast of Germany) and skip then entire 850 kilometer, 3 ferry, police infested adventure through Sweden and Denmark. I have done that drive a few too many times already and with gas costing $4.95 a gallon in the Kingdom of Sweden, I can think of better ways to blow money on board a ship cruising through the Baltic. >From Travemunde, I will head south to meet a few Germans from the Typ 3 Liebhaber. I also plan to stop a few German Volkswagen shops near and around Hamburg, but will head on down the autobahn in time to make it to the meeting on Thursday evening. If there is anyone else planning to come from Sweden, Denmark (are there any Danes on the list?), Norway or the Benelux countries, please speak up soon! Lets make some plans to caravan together. Mail your thoughts to the list or get in touch with me personally. I would really like to meet some of the fantastic people that make up our small Typ 3 world! Happy motoring.
