GABIT attendees thread

[donamac]

just not the last week of July please. My co-worker has vacation at that time and if it's then then I likely can't get the time off to go.

fingers crossed that it's one of hte other 50 weekends of the year

AND PLEEEEEASE not the first week of August as I skipped music camp last year and being on the Board I can't miss two years in a row.

[Jumble]

Well, I didn't go to the first TSE, though I was in Vancouver around that time for another conference. I'm hoping to make it to the next one. And if it occurs Dec 2011 or later, I'll be extra happy because I'm hoping to be living there by then, and it would greatly reduce my expenditures. Though maybe not since I would expect a woohoo invasion into my home.

As for the JtR walk, noms before or after works for me. Virgin Atlantic cancelled my original flight, so now I'm arriving in london at 8am. Yikes!

Hey, we're not expensive to keep! Just supply plenty of wine and broccoli

TSE2? Hm. The last week in July wood do for me because I'll be in Seattle and could just extend my holiday.......... end of August wood be a disaster though

Always in ample supply.

You coming over to this neck of the woods for a fun reason?

[Jumble]

You coming over to this neck of the woods for a fun reason?

Absolutely

[Trindajae]

Good times. If you'll be there in the middle of the week and want a touristing buddy besides Laurie the tour guide, drop me a line. I might be able to catch the train up for a day. Otherwise, be sure to wave south out the window as you fly past.

[EH-T]

The half season break for season 3 was the time of TSE, but I think the 13 ep season only went to about August. They finished 10 by July, so it would only take about 4 more weeks to film the 3 additional, going on a 7(ish) day filming schedule per ep.

Maybe I'm thinking of November because that is when they finished the post-production stuff. May have to revise my prediction.

Nix the November idea. Travel to Canada must occur between May and October.

Wimp!

Wow. So I've mostly not be living on the internet, then Mumsey sent me over here to find Ames for a question, and then I notice all the people I know and adore and I had to say hi! So this is where everyone's been hanging out. I'd thought the Gabit forum felt a little quiet for this close to an event. We can add me to the list of attendees. I'm flying in on Wednesday afternoon.

Yes, most of us are here because we were already on GW.

I'm adding me to the cocktail party bunch

Congrats!

[Trindajae]

Wimp!

I second that. Vancouver in November is nothing to be afraid of. Now if we were talking about Chicago in winter, I'd understand... But then I've been raised amidst temperate winters and I'm completely spoiled.

Who else that is going on the JtR Tour is leaving from the hotel? What time should we meet? There was talk of dinner before. My flight lands at 1:30pm, so I should be at the hotel by 2:30 or 3 at the latest. I would like a bit of time to freshen up and change clothes and such, but I should be able to make the walk Mary (myblackrose) was also thinking about meeting us for that too.

Just putting my Name in .

The date for Anderson's has been changed and the booking made

[Celandine]

Was going over baggage allowance earlier for the different flights we'll be taking and was surprised at how much difference there is between each airline. Just a suggestion, but be sure on your checked baggage weights/measurements and fees (if applicable) before you leave as well as size/weight allowances for carry-on bags. Things have gotten tighter and it's never fun to have a nasty surprise at the airport and have to hurriedly transfer items or (hopefully not!) add another bag to checked because of the various restrictions.

You bet your sweet bippy.

Tis a story behind this. I live in Michigan so I have no problem with winter, generally speaking, except for the fact that I loathe the season.
