Okay folks - for those of use who have tickets for the opening Sunday, we need to start looking at hotels. I'm planning on going up on Saturday, Oct 27th. I'd like us to go for dinner or something that night too. Car pooling - I have a couple of people in my car already and have room for one more (Garrett - did you want that spot? I know we'd talked about it before). Gas costs will be shared of course. Hotel share - I also have two people in my room already (Alison and Sali) but we may be able to fit one more. I'd like to share with someone I'm familiar with. We've only got 7 weeks people!!
Aww phooey! Just when everyone is coming up to Edmonton I'll be out of the country! I am really looking forward to Identities. I might even go a few times because... Why not!
Sure Marcy - and yeah, if you're okay with taking taking your car, I'm cool with that! I'll confirm with Alison and Sali as well.
Unfortunately, I do not know if I can make it, yet, for opening day. Heck, are tickets even available still? I may have to wait till later.
Found some hotels near the Science Centre. I suppose we don't have to be really close - since we're going up Saturday and will drive over anyway. But check these out: http://www.hotels.com/search.do?des...=167228&searchParams.landmark=1658036&hotelId=
Last I saw, there were tickets available for that day, just not that entry time. But once you're in, you can stay in for as long as you like. I plan on going more than once too - so we may be able to hook up another time. There is a nice article about it in this months Insider if you want a preview!
I think The Sandman is pretty good deal - $101, free wi-fi, free parking and it's only 5 km to the Science Centre. It's not far from West Edmonton Mall either.
the Sandman sounds good.. just let me know what time to pick you, Alie and Sali and what time you want to start the adventure
I plan on wearing my Tosche CVI shirt to the Exhibition on Sunday. In case anyone else wants to as well
Hey, first post here. Just wanted to say that I was able to go to this on opening day, and had an absolute blast!
