This year EF was awesome!
It started for Taibu and me last Tuesday - we headed up to Germany while listening to great music like the songs of the Fauna project...great songs by the way ;)
We picked up friends and continoued a joyful drive full of music
to Suhl.
When we arrived at the Ringberg Hotel I was scared....don't like huge hotels like this - but I got to love it. It was great...wow...generous lobby, luxury rooms,...and everything dreamt for...juhu.
The con started for us on with waiting for doing the rehearsal of the Fauna project concert - while waiting I had the chance to get to know ShiShi and talked to other early arrivals. Poor staff...was busy, busy, busy....
At around 1.am the guys started to rock on stage - and it sounded great!! We had the pleasure to listen to Alec's voice for the first time and I felt in love with his voice when he sang "Creature of the Wood" - juhuhu !!
So for Taibu and me the con started already with some lack of sleep, but we could cope with that pretty easy. It turned out that this EF seemed to be more relaxed. The furs were more open minded and very talk active. The atmosphere was already on the first day as it is normaly just at the end - great! I talked more than ever, it was so easy this year to get in touch with somebody...wow!
Taibu's big day was Thursday evening - when the Fauna project concert took place. The guys rock!! It was a great concert with funny elements - now I in possession of a pirate hut...hey!
It appeared that the whole con was better than ever - not just for me!
On Saturday Alexander James Adams gave is fabulous concert. He replaces Heather pretty astonishing - his spirit and joy are contagious as Heather's.
Shaevairc came as guest for the concert and we both enjoyed it pretty much - next time I hope we can dance instead of sitting in rows. Would be much more fun jumping and dancing around!!
Time ran tooo fast...I tried to catch up, but ...
I slept as less as possible to not to miss to meet some of you. I had never a "real" hung over...just drank a few Jägermeister - yeah..this year I could resist...hehe...I got stronger...yeah!
Uncle Kage vs. 2 the Ranting Gryphon was amusing as expected!! yeah! not to forget the Pawpet Show..wow...you guys made me laugh at first and at the end was it so touching and emotional that I had to cry. Great show...wow!
Afterwards I was a bit contemplative but I managed to get in party mood with everybody around...hurray!! BBF Dance - nobody should miss this! Taibu and I enjoyed the dance floor as Shae, Kore & Alec and a lot of you did ;) - thanx to Tabbiefox for the flower necklace...very decorative!
Sunday lots of you left already...that's a sad part, hmm. I went for a walk around the hotel with friends. I left the hotel for the first time since Tuesday (just walked once outside for the BBQ...creepy somehow isn't it?). We walked to the zoo down in Suhl and went for cafe after we got soaked in the rain...pretty weather!
In the evening we went to the "Crazy Horse" for having dinner with around 50 furs - we enjoyed a delicious supper in good and funny company :)
Monday we had to say good bye to AmurUssuri, Laimika, Jari and others before we drove to Nürnberg to spent the day there. We just chilled and had Bratwurst and Sauerkraut for Kore. At the end of the day we had to say good bye again...sob!
But I am still in a great mood, just tired but inspired! It was great to see you all again and to meet new friends. Hope that the next EF will be here soon...just 12 months to go!
