We arrived at the FC hotel yesterday courtesy of Mr
t_h_squirrel. I'm currently residing with
klepsydra,
insofox and
nomadfox in room 355, if you're reading this and are at the con.
Following my last post, we went to Alcatraz as planned which was really good. We also had the fortune of going on Al Capone's birthday so were treated to a talk about him. Yesterday, we covered most of the other sights such as Golden Gate, Lombard Street, Coit Tower, China Town and also a breif visit to Haight Ashbury.
I have just registered and got my badge, but as there hasn't been much else to do, I've mostly been wandering around spotting people I know and lazing in the gorgeous hot sun by the pool.
However, it has not all been good. I learnt yesterday that I would nto be receiving my fursuit in time for the con. I received and apologetic email from
chapeljax explaining that he had been struck down by some illness meaning he's not been able to do it in time which resulted in me feeling pretty depressed. But I've been doing my best to push that to the back of my mind and will try to enjoy the con as best I can.

Date: 2006-03-28 04:35 pm (UTC)Found ya, so you went to FC too? Shame we did not know of each other then, we should have met up.
You booked in for FC07? I have booked hotel already, you better do it now just in case, if you cannot make it later then you can always cancel. Be sure to ask for the Further Confusion block booking, the rest of the hotel is already sold out.
Yup, we both got let down by Jax on the delivery, however, I now have my Jax suit (WoooHooo), feel free to drop in if you would like to see it.

Date: 2006-03-28 06:06 pm (UTC)Yeah I went to FC06, but as you can see I didn't have the best of times. I'm still waiting for my suit, now 2 1/2 months late.
Not sure about FC07 yet, I'm thinking of skipping it and going to Anthrocon 2007 instead. I only get limited time off from work a year.
