It's actually just a drive, not necessarily a show. This was my fifth year attending, and of course, it gets bigger and better every year. However this year, there were rumors that there were going to be less participants than last years 350 (ish) cars due to high gas prices, but to everyones amazement, i think the final head count was 670 cars. It's definitely a fun cruise, especially considering the town of Leavenworth is no bigger than 2 city blocks, so we definitely take over when we arrive. The cruise itself is the best part though, mainly because for the most part, it's a two-lane highway, so when people see a 5 mile line-up of nothing but VW, audi and BMW's- it kinda makes everyone just stop and stare. The only downfall was that there was a head-on collision about 20 miles into the cruise (no one in our group was involved) but it split up the group pretty bad- only about 100 of us got through before the crash happened, and the rest were stuck behind the accident scene for about an hour before the road was opened back up. Other than that it was awesome, it was a beautiful day that reached 101 degrees. I recommend anyone in the area that hasnt been on the annual Leavenworth cruise, make it a point to be there next year.
