The most of us live in Tampa Bay.
We should find someplace in Tampa.

If there was actually anything to do in the middle of Florida, we could meet there. But, since there isn't...
Tampa Bay and Orlando are probably the two places that would be able to really support this, and provide hotels for those who need them.
But another factor is, what are the ages of those involved? I know Phong's old enough to be able to reasonably go far out of town and sleep in a hotel if need be, and so am I, but what of the rest of you?
That could make a large difference in meeting place.

I am not. I will probably be in the Orlando area between the 19th and 23rd (long distance women; :sigh: ). After Xmas I'm gone.
I think TB is the ideal place to do it, because its so great, you know?

Yay! I'll actually be here!phongn wrote:The tenative date is 21 December (Sunday).
Got a time and place to go with that date?
Since I am having some difficulties with home internet access, I'll just PM phong with my e-mail address. That I can always check at the library at the least (or, if it's open, the good ol' Marshall Center).

Eh, good. I'll be in that neck of the woods. Will have to tell my Pretty Lady that I'll be partially engaged one evening though.phongn wrote:Probably the AMC Pleasure Island 24 in Downtown Disney. It's more or less centrally located.

Sounds good to me. Sunday, 21 December, AMC Pleasure Island 24, Downtown Disney. Just as soon as I remember the best way to get there (or just say fuck it and go up I4 the whole way, either one) and, of course, a meeting time, I'll be good to go.
Now, to find the cash for a possible hotel stay. Hm...

I'd actually prefer a morning go if possible (avoids crowds and saves time for other engagements/people heading home/going elsewhere/etc.). Anyone repugnant to that?phongn wrote:Ticket Times Announced

Time to decide, and quickly.

Ditto. And I wake up early too often as is.phongn wrote:Morning means I have to wake up even earlier to head over to Orlando. I'd prefer the afternoon.
Plus, I'll just come back from a three day "visit" to Parris Island and some fun on Saturday, so me waking up early doesn't sound too good on that day.
So... The time Phong sent in the e-mail sounds good (1445 IIRC), and I don't mind if it's later (I can either try and look up a hotel ahead of time, or just suck it up and drive home).
EDIT: And taking a look at what the NYC gang is doing, anyone want to be ambitious and try for anything else as well? God knows there're enough resteraunts in Orlando to think about...

I wouldn't mind... The "big" places I remember from my last journey there are Hard Rock, Planet Hollywood, and that Rainforest Cafe, as well as all the stuff at CityWalk... It's up to you all.phongn wrote:Okay, looks like 1445 is the time. Should we make plans for lunch or dinner there too?
Sadly, I'll be out of town until next Friday. I guess you all will have to decide, and I'll have to find time to hit an ATM.
So, this computer had damn well better work or I'm gonna be royally pissed if I miss it.

However, some of us have something called a "budget" that limits the amount of money one can spend on overpriced food.RogueIce wrote:I wouldn't mind...

Phong and I were thinking dinner after the movie at some place not called McDonalds. I was going to ask my dad what was down in the area, I do know there is a Golden Corral off I-4 around International Drive (or it might be Sand Lakes Road, can't remember) but I can't remember anything else.
So, is anyone bringing a camera?

Well, we only had three confirmed shows: Me, Phong, and RogueIce. Hope none of you came and couldn't find us.
