I have a question for the group (actually, a couple of questions). What is the largest hg festival in the world and where is it at? If it's in Europe somewhere, which I suspect it is, how easy, or difficult is it to get around if you don't speak the language. I have a fear about going to other countries where I can't communicate with the people (which is probably why I've only been to Canada and England), (of course there was that trip to Mexico, but that's another story).
Thanks for any help you can offer.
