AI Thread Summary
A proposal is in the works to organize a gathering for PF friends in southern France, specifically near the Pyrenees, during the second half of April 2010. The host is optimistic about securing commitments from attendees, emphasizing that costs will be reasonable, especially compared to hotel rates. The location offers various activities such as hiking, horseback riding, and swimming, with a minimum suggested stay of one week to accommodate travel from North America.The discussion touches on the potential for shared cooking experiences, which could enhance the communal atmosphere, and the host's sister is keen to facilitate the event. Participants are encouraged to consider travel logistics, including passport requirements, as well as the overall costs, which are projected to be around 300 euros for accommodations, divided among attendees. Interest is growing, with several firm commitments already made, and the host is open to suggestions regarding the event's format and activities. The gathering promises to be an enjoyable and memorable experience, with plans for socializing and exploring the beautiful countryside.

No one is too young, just get your parents permission. I'm young, but sure as heck am not that young, though I wish I were :biggrin:

I am young too, but I don't think I need my Mom permission.

Meanwhile we have a proposition for renting the premises. 300 Euro for one week, regardless of the number of people. That would have to be divided equally by the attenders. of course there is a limit on the maximum number but that is a sort of fluid, as long as people are prepared to sleep in tents.

Also we can still decide about the period in April. All options are open, but that should be finalized in a few weeks.

Meanwhile there are at least three firm commitments of prominent PF members and several more showing high interest. So we can go for it.

We had to go for the second full week of April 2010 starting Saturday 10 April until Sunday 18 April 2010.

Again expenses for the stay are a total of 300 euros divided by all plus the costs of foraging and beverages. We'll work out some ways.

Travel, if you can get to Toulouse airport in France, in princple we can pick you up and take it from there. Please get in contact before ordering tickets and discussing details of travel.

It's going to be a very nice little holiday. We have secured the cooperation of the resident PF entertainer for that :smile:

You'd better be taking Kurdt, my options in April are iffy.

Andre, I'll consider going if you'll consider presenting your mission statement in power point.

For Europe it may help to check individual price fighter air lines, from destination backwards to find out that German wings for instance flies between Toulouse and Manchester.
