I would love to go, but I'm from Denmark and that's one long flight for something like that - so no I don't think I'm going.

nice to know you phlamingo..it's a long flight indeed, but the event itself is from 10-20 july. the official event is 15-20 july. so a few hours flight really pays off the event. still expecting to meet there...thanks for response!
