So who is thinking about going? I've been thinking about it, but it may be too expensive. Goloptious, you are going, right? Did you go last year, what is it like?

Goloptious, looks like we are going to be roomates. I've finally bit the bullet and I'm going. See you there.

LOL. Sorry I didn't reply yesterday. We've had some nasty storms here and the power was out for awhile and my internet didn't work for even longer. *sigh*

Yes, I am going, and I am excited about being roommates! I did go last year, and it was a lot of fun. I met a lot of people from the Fuselage who are now good friends of mine. My only regret is that I should have gone out and done more. I spent a lot of time sleeping because I drove 12 hours to get there and I left first thing in the morning after the party. This time I'll be leaving later than that.

What days are you staying?

I'm staying Thurs through Sunday in our room, but I was thinking about extending my stay until Tuesday using an employee discount my friend hooked me up with. $50 per night! I would have used it during the event, but they said that it is a no no, but Tuesday's flights are $100 cheaper than Sunday's flights, so I could stay two more days for the same cost (plus food, touring money, etc.). I think I'll make up my mind by Friday.

That's an awesome deal! But it is definately better to get the hotel with the deal for DLA. If a certain number of hotel rooms aren't booked, then the deal may fall through that the planners worked out.

If you can stay longer for the same price, you should. Lots of people stayed longer than I did last year. I left on Sunday morning, first thing. I'm thinking about staying another night as well.

Yeah, I worked it out. It will be $5 cheaper if I stay two more nights, so I may stay till Tuesday. Oh, I didn't think about airport parking. I guess it will be a litttle more to stay the extra days.

I'm going to the brunch on Sunday. I've been looking at the flights out. There's one at 1:15 and one at 2:40. I'm a little nervous about being able to make it to the 1:15 flight, although this would be the best flight if I leave on Sunday. The 2:40 flight gives more more time but it doesn't arrive in Philly till 12:40, and the thought of traveling out to long term parking at 12:40 at night makes me a little nervous.

I'm just going to check with the hotel to see if I can move the dates on my reserved room. If so, then I'll stay through Tuesday.
