WonderCon 2017 Meet ups
« on: February 10, 2017, 07:33:17 AM »
Anyone interested in organizing us in to a meet up or two?  [member=314]Transmute Jun[/member] ;)

I'll be around Wednesday night - Saturday nights.  I'm not sure about Sunday night. 

I do have fond memories of that Chicken and Waffle place...

I will not be organizing a meetup. Since we're back to Anaheim, that means my family is back with me and we'll be spending our 'free' time at Disneyland. So I'm not going to be available after the con/evenings to organize anything. I haven't ever been able to attend a WonderCon meetup in Anaheim.

Now if anyone wants to meet up with us for park touring at Disneyland one morning, I am happy to organize that!

I think, & I'll check, the marriott hotel did a really good buffett dinner one night.  it was pricey at $25 ish but all you could eat & the chocolate deserts were amazing....

I'll call them & see if they still have it and what night- & check reserving a table.

Khann got back to me with a suggestion of Korean BBQ..... ;) I'm up for it but i like new & different

If there's a meet up, I may stop by.

You are not the only one doing Disneyland that weekend.  The Electrical Parade...'nuff said.

I am definitely down for WonderCon meet ups! I'll be in Anaheim from Thursday afternoon until Saturday night (I'll be leaving for LA early Sunday morning).

Also, if we are lacking organizers, I am more than willing to help out with one of the meet ups! Seeing as this will be my first time visiting Anaheim, I'm not really sure that I'm the best person to decide where to hold a meet up - but if anyone has suggestions, I'd be happy to gauge interest, call and make a reservation, etc.  :D

I am down to do whatever since for the first time I'm actually staying up there Friday and Saturday nights and I will close the Con out on Sunday.

[member=3884]mlgagne[/member] why you leaving early to LA? Have some cool plans there?

The LA portion of my trip is the mostly the "business" part (with WonderCon being the "fun" part, haha). One of the studios my job works with regularly is based in that area, so I'm hoping to meet up with them while I'm out there. I've also been considering re-locating to the LA for a while now but I've never actually been there, so I want to get a feel for what it's like. No immediate plans or anything - just weighing my long-term options, so to speak. But I'm probably also going to try to do some touristy things like sight-seeing, going to a show, etc. while I'm out there  :)

Nice, LA is a lot of fun. I recommend definitely going to Griffith Observatory. It is amazing up there.

Try to get a payroll adjustment, housing rates have gone through the roof

Article on rents, the west side is even worse.

I used to live in El Segundo which is just south of LAX airport , in 2016 i was paying $1,950  for a large two bedroom two bath apartment, then someone bought the building and they kicked us all out. They refurished the building and now rents are $2,800 per month

Let's have a meet up at Trader Sams Enchanted Tiki Bar at the Disneyland Hotel. It's a pretty fun place!  Anyone? How about Saturday?
