After visiting Think Pink and visiting Dutch BJD convention Dolliverse twice, yesterday I attended my very first BJD owners' meet. It was pure awesomeness... I just had to share. How awesome is it to be able to talk about dolls dolls dolls and not be looked at funny, belong to a group and look at and touch other people's dolls..? I had a blast <3. There were 10 of us, 9 from the Netherlands and one came all the way from Belgium.

I brought Anne, Ellie and Tapioca. Group pic:

That's so awesome!! It is a blast to meet other doll owners, and it's a great way to see dolls you don't have yourself. I love Doll Meets! I hope you get to do this often, and that at least some of your new friends live close enough to meet regularly. Group photostories and interactions are a lot of fun to do!

I'm pretty sure cause there were lots of camera lol, but I don't have too many myself. Nothing too interesting anyway. I'll see if I can get my hands on the other girls' photos soon ^^

It was completely awesome and I'll go to more meets in the near future for sure ^^

You might be shocked to hear that the people there came from all corners of Holland... and even one from Belgium. But then again, our country is rather small ;). I think maximum travel time was 3-4 hours for some..?

Yep, can you imagine there were only 10 people there? We didn't even bring our entire collections... now THAT would have been something...
