DESCRIPTION

This year's second trip went to the Netherlands! ZtreamNew window was my travel buddy this time.

The main goal was the music festival "11th Roadburn FestivalNew window". It started at saturday 22 April at 15:00 and went on until about midnight. The highlight of the trip was the performance of the british spacerock band Ozric Tentacles. I'd since long wanted to see them play live.

After the festival we used the remaining days to explore Amsterdam.
