Group trip goodness

[danaeris]

Group trips are cool, and as a group, we can rent HUGE suites, which may have amenities such as kitchens and hot tubs, and wind up with prices in the $50/night/person range, with everyone still getting a couch or bed to sleep in. In Vegas, we had 14 people in the suite (legally), and 10 bed and couch spots. With two air mattresses everyone could have had a bed; likewise if we'd managed to get one of the suites with two beds per bedroom, 14 would have been in beds without air mattresses. Another 16 people stayed in separate rooms for more privacy, and we had two jaccuzis which comfortably fit about 4.

I think these are a good idea. They give us an excuse to travel to the places we already wanted to go to. So, how about you, do you want to join me in travel (at least, theoretically)?

Edit ooops, apologies for leaving out options such as "I'm free all the time due to not working or a flexible work schedule" as an option. My bad.

come to Vancouver for Santacon on 18 December.
our fifth annual debauch, drawing madmen, sluts and discordians from all over the Northwest.

Our vacation time this year is very firmly slotted for a trip to Germany. Otherwise, I might be somewhat interested.

That said, I have friends I want to visit in Seattle and well...if people go to New Orleans, I wouldn't be able to say no, if for the food alone. I miss Louisiana so much.

Is actually very cool, but if I went there, I'd be tying up loose ends...

San Diego has some interesting stuff I've never quite made it too.

I think Los Angeles is hosting WorldCon a couple years from now.

I know it doesn't quite fall under this survey, but along the lines of random_vamp's suggestion - another weekend at Annwfn would totally rock. I mean, I know I can go there anytime but a mob would definitely make it more likely that I would get off my ass and do it.

Oooh, I totally second that idea. Seriously. Besides...I still need to grab my favorite knife from the kitchen there. I just hope it hasn't developed legs and walked off or disappeared into a void by the time I get back up there.
