Breda 09 questions
Posted On 08/08/2009 14:37:47 by CopperNinja
I am considering dropping everything and heading out to Breda this year and with only 1 month's notice.  I have a few questions, though.

What activities are there?

What is the atmosphere like (family, party, some of both?)?

What is Breda like?  I've been to Holland but only from Schipol (sp?) to Amsterdam and back.  I presume it's not like Amsterdam, but can anyone help compare the two.

Approximately what percentage of the participants are Dutch and what percentage are foriegn?  About what percentage are American?  About what percentage are English speaking?

Do most people in Breda speak English?

Is there a direct train route from the central Amsterdam station (I forget the name but the one north of the largest red light district) to Breda?  Is there a direct train route from Schipol to Breda?

Any responses to any of these questions would be much appreciated.

From shiphol to Breda is not a direct trainroute. plan your route whit this site.. http://journeyplanner.9292.nl/ 

The colour for the big photoshoot will be White.. last year everyone was wearing black so just pic a whit shirt and come in.. If you don.t have anything white there will be clothes for sale on the Redhairday..
