Seattle, WA Portland Science of Star Wars Exhibit

Mos Everett is planning to go in November (we had to put it off due to surgeries and dead cars) so if anyone is interested in tagging, we'd be glad to have you.

 

So, if the 22nd official or should we wait until November and go with Mos Everett?
I am okay with the 22nd and I am not sure how easily getting time off will be in November, but I can try if everyone else wants to go in November.

 

My trip down there this weekend was canceled.

I'd be up for the 22nd.

 

I got the 22nd off incase we go down.

 

hmmm 22nd might just work!

 

Awesome.
The Oregon FF soundlike they are meeting there at 4pm. Does that work for everyone? I've never driven to Portland so I have no idea how long it takes to get there and stuff.

 

I'm hosting a dinner par-tay at my place on the 22nd, so I can't make it.

But y'all have fun now, y'hear?

 

So, are we going to this?

Are we meeting there or meeting and carpooling? Is tomorrow still a good day?

 

Still wanna go myself, but prefer a ride not to drive to this one.

 

I am going to have to go another day. But plenty of time still.

 

Okay, it looks like it's cancelled for today. What other day would be good?

 

I was going to come in here and asked how it was. Some of us Mos Everettonians are going there on Sunday November 19th at 1pm. We'll be driving down on Saturday and spending the night, going to the Museum on sunday. Paulie has some errands to run on Saturday nearby, and I was thinking of tripping on over to check out either Powells bookstore (on my own unless some other Mos Everett folks are joining me that day) , or maybe spending a few hours at Orycon (it's that weekend as well)

We have a thread on our forum where we are discussing the plans, if anyone wants to join us

 

Any thoughts on this? I think I can manage the time off but I have to ask for it soon.

 

i can try, but im not sure

 

I could politely ask, but I'm not sure I'll be able to. Work is getting nuts right now and I expect to be catching up on 6 months of work never done.

I vote we wait until after Christmas at this point. Maybe the Saturday after? Everything is going to be getting really busy now for us retail employees and Saturday is a peak shopping day. But if I have enough time to get it off, I can.

 

Bumping this back up to the top for more visibility. Unless anything changes, we are scheduled to head down there on the 27th (in 16 more days).

 

One of my days off, so I'm in.

 

Here's what the hours, prices, etc...for December 27th will be. Yes, I do have lots of time on my hands

Hours for Wednesday, December 27, 2006

Museum Exhibits
and Science Store
9:30am-5:30pm

Star Wars Exhibit Hours:
Sunday - Wednesday: 9:30 a.m. - 8:00 p.m.

OMSI Cafe
9:30am-5:00pm

Market Express

Admission Prices

Star Wars Admission (includes Museum admission)...15.00

Millennium Falcon admission (includes Souvenir Pin)...5.00 (yup, this costs extra, but I'll definitely be doing this)

Star Wars PLUS Admission (basically it's the Star Wars Admission plus either a Sub Tour, or Planetarium show)...18.00

I'm not sure what everyone wants to do or not. Personally I will be doing the Star Wars Admission and the Millennium Falcon Admission. If anyone wants to do the Star Wars Plus Admission I'm down with that also. But, time allowing, we can hang out down there and do whatever y'all want to do.

Also on this day at their OMNIMAX...Antartica and Happy Feet are showing (of course, like everything else there, it will cost extra).

They do have a Museum Combo (includes museum admission, one OMNIMAX movie, and your choice of one planetarium show or one submarine tour)...19.00 (but, I have no idea if this will include the Star Wars Exhibit or not)

Another thing is getting down there. If we all meet at the "regular" carpool spot, it will take us close to 4 hours to drive there (give or take a bit for traffic, weather, accidents, etc...). My Suburban can hold 7 people total (including me), so I can squeeze 6 more of us into it if needed.

 

I'm still in.

 

What day is everyone actually going? John and I will be over there to visit family for a belated gathering the weekend after Christmas and we really want to see this exhibit. Would there be any room to bum a ride down with y'all? We'd help with gas of course... It would be awesome to finally meet everyone!

 

We are going to be heading down there on December 27th.

 

Alrighty, the 27th is coming up fast. Who all is interested in going?

 

me

 

Okay, you two stay up waaay too late

I'm still in *raises hand*
