Looks like we'll have to get some dinner reservations for Thursday through Sunday nights again. 👍🏻

It seems I have to plan the flight and the accommodation.

[JasonlikesINTV]

I'm trying my best to make it this year. I even started looking at flights. I should know more soon...

[Steve Jones]

yeah the wife and I booked our flights and rooms sometime back. I still need to purchase our tix, but at the time that wasn't up and running yet to do so. I will when I get home later this evening.

[majors]

I've never been to the Portland show, but I hear great things. It seems to always fall on a booked wknd for me, but I'll enjoy vicariously through the comments and PICTURES!

[+freewheel]

Trip booked. Staying at the DoubleTree this year.

 

I'll have to bring the last remaining copies of INTV Desert Bus - apparently people were asking about it last year!

 

Crossing my fingers we get a sneak peak at the new Intellivision system

[Intymike]

I just booked the flight and the hotel. I stay from Tuesday, the 16th til Wednesday the 24th at the Inn at the Convention Center.

As this is again a room with two king size beds I would share the room to cut the costs.

[+SoulBuster]

I will set dinner reservations again this year. Do we want the same places or is there some place new to try?

[+Lathe26]

There is a place downtown across the river called Spartacus that may interest you

[Intymike]

I'am Spartacus!

[+Special Teams]

Yeah, let's try something new.

 

I am Spartacus.

McDonalds.

[Intymike]

McDonalds.

 

 

I've heard the US McDonalds is worse then the German...and has no beer.

[+Lathe26]

I am McDonalds!

I've heard the US McDonalds is worse then the German...and has no beer.

I got back from Germany & Austria last week and already miss the beer. I didn't go to McDonalds (dear Grond, no way), but the beers I had over there were delicious and go down so smooth.

 

When you come to PRGE, is there any chance you can bring some Bärenfang? It's a honey liqueur I enjoyed but now regret not bringing home (not a mead or met).

[Intymike]

I Think it would be easier to send you something as getting it in the plane.

The exact same can be said about the pretzel chain Auntie Anne's.

[Intymike]

I can bring you a bag of Brezeln. Easier than a liquid.

 

btw. I enjoyed the beers we had in Portland a lot. These craft beers were quite nice.
