Thanks Jim
I will check out some self drive/train options. It's great to get the closest airport and train info as it makes accomodation options outside of Bra a little easier for me to consider.
We had our own, much smaller Cheesefest here in Auckland last week and I was completely cheesed out after an hour so I'd have to pace myself a little better for Bra.
You've given me inspiration to organise a trip, if not this year, for the next event, and without the need for a guided tour.
Cheers
Sharon
