Anthrocon!

[slycat]

I've not been posting as frequently about my holiday as I had been but I'm making notes so I can write them up later when I'm not having so much fun :).

Realised one major mistake I made this year which I did last year; I booked return flights one day after the most people will have disappeared. I will be flying back on the 10th, arriving in London on the 11th when the last day of the con is today (8th) so many people will be leaving tomorrow. So on Monday, everyone will be going home while I'll be here fore another day. The same happened when I went to FC. Really should just leave the next day after the con finish rather than giving ourselves an extra day. Hopefully will check out a theme park or go to the mall again to get away from the depression of the end of the con.

Oh, also, AC is too frigging short! I know I've still a whole day to go but it's all gone far too quickly. FC's 5 days seem much better suited to the con. Looks like I missed out on all the dances and stuff this year unless there's one I dont know about on tonight. Ah well, will make the most of my remaining time and suit up where I can. I need photos to be taken of me in suit at the fursuit photography thing too.

That's exactly what I did at my only trip to AC. I don't know why it is that furs will show up days early for a convention, but very few will stay on after it.

I got lucky and ran into some local Philly furs (wox and friends) who invited me round for the day.

And then the day I left was the famous episode of me, selkit and kylefox waiting for the airpoer shuttle in the lobby when unclekage appeared with Stan Sakai and his family, and Stan, seeing us waiting, asked if we were heading for the airport. When we said we were, he insisted on us getting a ride with him in the stretch limo...

So all in all I'm glad I made that mistake for my first US con. May you be as lucky.

Yes, FC is a little bit better for length of a con. ;) AC is virtually a 4 dayer.
