Prepare yourself for the biggest BBB in history, a lot of things are happening and we are working with Balloon Fest on a few things (could be fun).

Not only will you get to hang out with the coolest bus people in the world you'll also get to see balloons fly, can go on a balloon ride, etc.

Balloons fly every morning Friday through Monday (weather permitting) with balloon glows in the evening.

Tell you're friends, pass the word. This is one not to miss in 2013

More info to follow as the LBB gets things confirmed.

Buses by the Bridge now features a sandy beach, don't know how this will affect camping on the beach, but we will have an answer soon.

Also reservations are now open at the OFFICIAL BBB host hotel. Make your reservation early as the Lake Havasu Balloon Fest is also that weekend and every hotel room in Lake Havasu will be sold out. Ask for the Buses by the Bridge special rate. This hotel should be full with BBB people

Please vote on whether or not you would go up in a tethered Hot Air Balloon if it was at the BBB site

"OK, There is a change on camping on the BEACH for BBB 2013.
There are no VEHICLES allowed on the BEACH due to the addition of all the sand that has been added.You can tent camp on the beach but there is no
place near there to park."

We are asking everyone who camps across the sidewalk to tighten it up to allow more VW's in.

There is still plenty of room for everyone, but we do expect BBB to be the biggest ever with the addition of the Lake Havasu Balloon Fest happening the same weekend.

Sweet. Hey, how did the rear safari work out for you?

My schedule appears to have me working that Saturday the 19th through the 22nd Crying or Very sad Time for some creative scheduling as I really do not want to miss it this year. Last year was a blast.

Works a treat sir, although I do forget to close it sometimes... The truck had a six page feature in ultra VW mag over here a couple of months ago, you can check up on your old window if you like Wink

I'm also glad it doesn't clash with the Pomona swap meet this year, means I can have a lay in Sunday morning!
