Seattle, WA The Celebration 4 Travel Information Thread!

Thanks for the heads up. I voted.

And wow... I am so excited about the dealer room.

 

1 month................YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm hoping to get a pic in my armor in front of the Hollywood sign, who's with me?

 

that sounds cool. There is a really great place to take pictures with the Hollywood sign in the background at the Hollywood and Highland complex with the new Kodak theater. It is right next to Grauman's... and the burger hut... and Mel's diner... hmmmmm.
I am now almost totally convinced that there won't be enough time to do all the things that I want to do when I'm there!

 

so I caved in and got tickets to see "an evening with Carrie" It's on Sat at 9. Tix were $15. The last day to order tickets is tomorrow. www.gencon.com

 

Awesome! Amy, you are the seeker

 

I found the golden snitch! (sorry couldn't resist!)

 

Five points to Gryffindor!

 

19 days til takeoff! Several people have asked to smuggle some stuff with my particular transport, and I don't want to forget anything, so be sure to shoot me a PM about meeting up and handing off your various items. I will also be getting a Go phone so you can coordinate once we've arrived in LA. LMK!
Joey

 

i have a few things as well as we need to coordinate about the hotel stuff!

 

PM sent!

 

Luckily I don't have any props for my costume except an ewok.

 

Aaaawwwwe! I love Ewoks... expect to have your Ewok confiscated by the 501st though. THey love taking pictures of captive ewoks.

 

Stormtroopers can't beat ewoks We're in trouble!

PANIC! Does anyone know if they are going to do the shopping like regular? I missed the sign up for the QuickPass thingy! ARG!! Not that I'm going to buy a ton, but I wanted to just hop in and hop out. CRAP!

Edit: Is anyone as OCD as I am right now? I'm highlighting the dealer map and checking websites for the best way to pack my bag and see if I need another piece of luggage.

Second Edit: If anyone wants, there IS a website that JUST sells sample sizes of products. Click here for the site. Commone stuff you can get at the store, but this site has a lot more. There's free shipping over $20. YAY FOR TRAVELING!

Put all your stuff in a smaller bag and then put that bag in an empty larger bag. When you come back you'll have an empty bag to work with. Besides, I'm sure between all of us there will be some room somewhere to bring stuff back with.
p.s. I got my badge in the mail!! YEAH! I have four non fanclub coupons to share with a non fanclub member... Sheridan?

 

I got my badge too!! I renewed my membership just in time!

JF

 

got my badge too, but I didnt get any membership pass i became a member too late probably

 

That could have been a mistake, the fanclub makes little goofups like that all the time, check the Gencon site and let them know.

 

Either that, or you can wait until the convention. They say on I think the Gencon site that you can talk to the peoples there and get your membership verified.

JF

 

there is actually an e-mail on the site somewhere or in an e-mail that they sent out saying how to get that issue addressed. If nothing else you can get your red lanyard upgrade down there.
Oooo I'm so excited! We're in the final stretch now! two weeks to go.

I'm putting together the scrapbook for the FF table. Does anyone have any pictues of their favorite collectable or other star wars story that they would like to share and have put in the book? Please send me what you have by Thursday evening. That way I can have the book done for the meeting this weekend. Thanks!

 

Are we there yet?

 

nope still got about 11 days to go

 

Are we there yet?
