Mud-skilde

It seems as if the torrential rains have stopped, but now we are left with more mud than we know what to do with! It's amazing though just how much something like weather can affect one's spirits. Even though the festival had turned into a sea of sludge, the fact that it stopped raining improved the mood drastically, and we were ready to P-A-R-T-Y!!
... when you're drunk, it really doesn't matter where your tent is. As long as you have a chair and a good pair of rubber boots, you too can still manage to have fun w/ your friends! Take these crazy folks for example...
Swillin' in the sludge while Casper guards the beer...Mette gives us a rousing "Skål!"
Søren stares dreamily at the mud...
Casper, (a.k.a. "The Onion"), demonstrates his multi-layered take on this year's hottest rain protection trend.
This is Daniel. His likes include whiskey, Amsterdam and the word "c*ck." Dislikes include the word "f*ck," mud and the French.
All of the rain must mean one thing - we need to build an ARK!!
This is where you can build "stuff & things." Unfortunately by the time we reached the area, all of the wood had been used, and none of the artifacts looked sea worthy. So we decided to just hang out and drink a beer or two...
Daniel gives us his thoughts on this sea vessel...
Looks like we may be too late. Noah seems to have taken off without us...
Daniel finds a floating device, and tests its sea-worthiness.
Now he tests its slide-ability... volunteers!?
Mette proves to be an excellent sailor.
