Dragon*Con News

[jackwabbit]

Because I know that many of you already heard about it, and the rest don't care or can't come to Dragon*Con so will just be sad, I decided not to post here about Patrick Stewart being confirmed as a D*C guest this year.  That is, until dearest Penguin (The Softwire's resident smartass) made me this:



BWAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAA!!!  Thank you, Pengy!  You, my dear, are the best! *sends virtual Morena*

Since we'd be driving, most likely we'd get a room (or two) farther away from the convention area and drive in for the events. If we're REALLY lucky, we could get a good deal for on a late-cancellation room, but I'm not gonna hold my breath.

Right now, it looks like we'd get there late Friday night--my friend and I both have afternoon classes on Fridays--and have all-day Saturday, Sunday, and most of Monday to explore, meet 'n' greet, and otherwise fangirl (and fanboy) our little black hearts out.

You could take MARTA, too...even from further out, to save on finding a parking space and all that.

I'm flying in, obviously, on Thursday morning. Then MARTA to the hotel (Days Inn - an overflow hotel, but close enough) and not leaving until they drag me away late Monday night!

I was in Atlanta last year for an extremely lame conference (not D*C, darn it), and got a travel package which included flight, shuttle transportation, and hotel. If I like it this year and think I want to go to D*C again, I'll probably book something like that in advance.

Good idea.

I bought my plane ticket and reserved my hotel in January, I think.

I got my con ticket a few weeks before that.

Splitting up the costs is nice.
