Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon.
Not sure if the $119 was for doubles or something else. But, I thought I'd mention it if it helps with the negotiating.
The $119 is for doubles and singles - they flattened the rate between them, and are also giving us a discount on the ballroom. But I can mention it to them.
Ooo, that sounds excellent.
Baseball always more fun with Buffistas. What isn't more fun with Buffistas?
Laura - will Brendan be joining you this year?
Well, if I tell him you will be there he will be persuaded.
We really missed going last year, particularly since it was the first one we had missed. He likes Seattle. I'm going to try and make it happen. It would likely involve combining family vacation with F2F vacation and staying a bit longer. The nice thing about the boys being teens now is that they can entertain themselves while we do our thing.
We're still trying to see if it's going to be doable for us since we already have a lot of summer traveling going on. I'm hoping we can make it!! I'd love to bring Emeline, too. I think her and Princess Tickybox need to meet.
I don't know ... get those two together and who knows what'll happen ... a double lethal cuteness bomb, perhaps!
A lethal cuteness ARMAGEDDON!
Hotel Nexus? Ha! It's literally 5 minutes from the House of Reason. It is quite a ways north of downtown Seattle but if there's complimentary shuttles then that's completely not an issue.
To give a little sense of where it is, it is right next door to I-5 (oh, and a gas station, yuck). if I-5 traffic is light you're looking at 15 to 20 minutes to downtown Seattle. If traffic is bad, anything up to an hour.
There is an excellent Indian restaurant called the Saffron Grill right in front of the hotel. Northgate Mall is 5 minutes walk (though not a walk I'd want to do at night) and the Mall has a number of other restaurants and a bunch of shopping. However, that's about all there is for foot traffic.
It seems pretty good, but I will be interested to see what else Juliana has to show.

Is that the place we went a couple of years ago? Nom, nom, nom. I'm not sure if I can make it out for the F2F, any extra money goes to my college kid these days.
