It should be noted that is Thanksgiving weekend.


I'd be there -- providing it wasn't on Thanksgiving weekend.



Hey ya, if ever something like that were to happen the dates would have to
chosen carefully, good news is if you have family in Florida you could vacation
for the Holidays to see your relatives and then swing on by the Lego Event and
Party with the other AFoL and show off and see MOCS then Game, then attend a
session or partake in a tournament!

Whooo Hoooo, Turkey Sang-witches and Bricks!


I will actually be in Orlando that week but will be heading back up to Amelia
Island for turkey with the inlaws on the 27th. So I doubt I could turn around
and drive back down for the weekend.

These holidays are tricky, for example Brickfest PDX being on Valentine's day
pretty much makes it out of the question for me. I already felt the wrath of my
NLSO when we did a train show out of town on mother's day weekend and Brickfest
on my daughter's first birthday (Aug. 8th)

What if it was on the weekend of Nov 22-23?

Here is a event plan (just for fun)...

http://www.bricktime.com/fla-event.pdf

Lets say your coming down to eat with the folks on Thanksgiving. Here is one way
it could go down...

1- Drive down Friday
2- Go to the event Saturday (maybe the wife and kids could go to Bush Gardens
Tampa for the day?)
3- Bring the family to the Sunday public day
4- Check out LIC Orlando Monday and go to one of the parks
5- You still have Tues/Wed for more park action
6- Dinner with the folks for Thanksgiving.
7- Go home Fri-Sun

Just, some ideas to ponder...

(...) Hmm, that would be harder for me to do :-) That would take 4 vacation days (fly Friday, take off Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday). Frank (21 years ago, 14-Aug-03, to lugnet.events, lugnet.loc.us.fl, lugnet.org.us.gflug)

(...) I've just realized that I cannot make it on the 23, so I can't make that weekend either. :( -JHK (21 years ago, 31-Aug-03, to lugnet.events, lugnet.loc.us.fl, lugnet.org.us.gflug)
