Since DragonCon has sent out their progress report I thought I'd ask here and see if anyone here will be there in Atlanta over Labor Day weekend? If so, is anyone interested in a breakfast meeting or something? DragonCon is so big and huge that you really have to pre-arrange a meeting to make sure you see people. Breakfast is just the easiest time to arrange anything before the convention activities start up.

I'm going.

It would be great if we could get a group together for breakfast or lunch!

I'm so far going to be able to make it, here's hoping nothing gets in the way this year.

It's a science fiction/fantasy convention held every Labor Day weekend in downtown Atlanta, GA. grin

Ahhhh... well, I'd love to go. Somehow though, seeing as I can't even drive, I don't think my whole family will take me to Atlanta.

Have fun!

It's been sooo long since I've gone. I don't miss the heat and humidity, but I miss the three costume changes per day, and hanging out with my friends.

Everyone going, enjoy yourselves for me. happy

Aaaaah, good times at DragonCon (web page: dragoncom.com).

I guess it's a little early to decide on something, but because of the ever changing DragonCon schedule, breakfast is the easiest to plan for. The Jedi Assembly is meeting for breakfast on Monday - very informal - come by the fan table for details. happy

Aaaaaaah, I'm back from Worldcon and DragonCon approaches in less than 3 weeks. The schedules are starting to emerge. It looks like most panel activity doesn't start until 10 AM. Does anyone want to meet in the food court at 8-8:30 on Friday before the big activity starts?

Side Rant::::::: what a hassle it is for a costumer to fly with luggage now. frustrated I may just minimize everything and wear only Jedi this time. No Angel-Puppet, no St. Mungo's scrubs, no dead-Jedi-ghostie. Next year I'll probably be able to get a ride and bring my usual stuff.

I'm going, I'm not sure when we plan to get there, just yet. Ten AM for starting the events? That's good, at least I'll get some sleep then. tongue

Last year, I met with a few people at the PeachTree food court for breakfast. It's connected to the Hyatt and Marriott by overhead walkway. But would people be there by Friday morning?

And I know the Ewan Ooglers are meeting at the Jedi Assembly Fan table (supposed to be in the Marriott Marquis fan table area) for lunch at 12:30 PM on Friday. All are welcome. happy

Do any of those times sound good? Or maybe Saturday for breakfast before things get started?

Saturday would likely be better for us at least, I think we're planning on coming in during the day Friday to minimize hubby's having to take time off work. I'm not sure on that though, he could change his mind.

Sat. would be good. I'm on 2 panels in the late afternoon so lunch or breakfast would be great.
